The drawn London league game of 4 goals at Craven Cottage between Fulham and West Ham Reserves was unsatisfactory, at least to the home team. Fulham started away at a great pace. In fifteen minutes they scored through Cowan, from a pass by Meade, and then, Hopkinson smartly caught a rebound from Fair, the Hammers ' right back, after some pretty play by Tannahill. These points pulled the visitors together, and they were soon credited with a neat goal scored by Smith, from a badly taken effort of Graham's.
Soon Smith succeeded again, this time from a scrimmage, Parkinson, left-half, having just previously been carried off the field hurt. At this time there was plenty of life in the play, and in a few minutes. Hopkinson, with a terrific shot, hit the post. Sheeran nicely meeting the rebound and converting. Before the interval Fulham got another throught he same player, Hopkinson again being the intermediary.
In the second half Smith equalised with two fine goals. Fulham were most unfortunate, for, besides having two goals disallowed for offside in the first half, in the latter the referee disallowed three more. Much dissatisfaction was expressed by the home supporters when Biggar, saving a stiff shot, appeared at least from the Press-box, to carry his arms back behind the line, a point likewise disallowed.
