From the Hendon & Finchley Times, 18 March 1927 (including teams) :

By six goals to two Uxbridge Town won the return Athenian League game at Claremont-road on Saturday, and, needless to say, the result was terribly disappointing to home supporters after the fine show that had been given by Hampstead in the three previous matches. The figures rather over-represent the superiority of the visitors, but they were clearly the better side, and one would have been prepared to congratulate them very heartily but for the fact that some of their work was not above reproach, and fortunately for them, there was in command of the game one who was prepared to allow many infringements to pass unnoticed. There was an exceptional number of cases of handling, and the tone of the game generally was not up to Athenian League standard. The visiting captain was H.H. Allwright, who played in the Hampstead team some years ago, and he strove might and main to bring victory to his side. No one can make any complaint on this score, but there was justification for the appeals made now and again that he should play the game.

Hampstead were unfortunate in being without Clarke and Smy. Business kept the former out of the team for the second week in succession; and Smy, thinking Hampstead would be playing a "friendly," had given a promise to help the "Spurs" Reserves. His place was taken by E. Applebee, who was not so successful on the left wing as he has been at inside-right, and consequently Howell was handicapped. Beckworth, who partnered Parsons at back, was not conspicuously successful, and the enforced changes conduced largely to the result. There was, however, a falling off in the play of one or two others, probably due to the robust methods of their opponents; and Pease, the captain, who was one of the best players on the home side, marred his otherwise good work by failing to convert a penalty kick. This was the third week in succession he had taken on the responsibility, and there were almost groans when it was found that he had shot straight at the goalkeeper.

Uxbridge put out a very strong side - the eleven that had beaten Southall in the Middlesex Charity Cup the previous week.

Uxbridge forced the pace from the beginning, a fine run by Fulford being one of the earliest features. Trevers did well to save a hot shot by Rounce, and the first corner fell to the visitors. This brought no result, and a like fate awaited one forced by Anderson, although it was beautifully placed by Deeks. At the end of ten minutes Rounce opened the scoring with a terrific shot which completely beat Trevers, and within a few minutes the dashing centre scored two more, the last of these being headed through from a nice pass by Fulford. It was a staggering blow to Hampstead to find themselves three goals down so early in the game, but they were not disheartened, and after an Uxbridge defender, in dealing with a fine centre by Smith, almost put the ball through his own goal, Pease, with one of many good shots, succeeded in reducing the visitors' lead. Hampstead appeared to have got into their stride, and from a corner conceded by Allwright, who did not care where he kicked so long as danger was averted, the Uxbridge goal had a narrow escape, Howell placing the ball nicely. Two other place kicks from the corner flag followed, and some good chances were allowed to pass. After a spell of defensive work, Uxbridge again pressed, and Parsons was on one occasion left to ward off no fewer than four forwards, Beckworth being well up the field. Nothing untoward happened, but a minute or two later Dutton stuck the post and the ball passed into goal out of Trevers' reach. Before half-time Rounce scored a fifth goal for Uxbridge with a simple shot.

In the second half each side scored once, but the play on the whole was in favour of Uxbridge. They missed many chances through weak shooting, but they were much better opportunists than Hampstead, who allowed innumerable chances to be wasted. Trevers made a number of fine saves, and kept his end intact until towards the end, when he was beaten by Dutton. In the meantime Pease had failed with a penalty kick, and Shearcroft had headed through from a pass by Deeks, this being in our opinion the best goal of the match.

Uxbridge thus reached double figures in their two League games with Hampstead, the result of the first game being 4-0. They have yet to meet again, at Claremont-road, in the Middlesex Charity Cup semi-final, and in order to win this game Hampstead's form will have to be considerably better than that shown against the "Reds" hitherto.

Trevers, Parsons, Anderson, Pease and Smith were the best of the bunch in this match; and for the visitors Ashby and Rounce were conspicuous in a well-balanced side.

From the Uxbridge & West Drayton Gazette, 18 March 1927 (including teams) :

Following their win over Southall, Uxbridge [Town] gained a surprisingly easy victory over Hampstead on Saturday by six goals to two. It took them exactly ten minutes to gauge the strength of their opponents, and then, having scored three goals in as many minutes, they were able to take matters quite comfortably for the remainder of the game, albeit they scored twice more before the interval and once in a very tame second half.

Uxbridge were the better side in every department. Hampstead could provide nothing in the way of team work comparable to that served up by the Reds, and for speed and ball control the winners were always on top. One man only on the Hampstead side showed up to advantage, this being the veteran Pease, who played a capital stopping game at centre-half.

Opening exchanges gave little indication that Uxbridge would get half-a-dozen goals. Two early raids by Hampstead found the defence decidedly shaky but they soon gained confidence, and Fulford, plentifully supplied with passes, gave the home defence a lively time on his wing. Trevers did well to turn a shot from the winger round the post, and later saved smartly from Rounce. Then the Uxbridge centre forward obtained a fine hat trick. His first goal came from a centre by Ashby. Redding could have shot, but instead jumped over the ball to allow Rounce, who was better placed, to drive it into the left hand corner of the net. Direct from the kick-off Howarth swung the ball forward and Rounce, dashing through, crashed it past Trevers. The third took but little more time in the getting. From the centre the ball was volleyed out to the right when Ashby and Fulford beat the home defence. The latter centred beautifully and Rounce met the ball with his head and flashed it in. Hereafter Hampstead rallied, and a mix-up in the Uxbridge goal "all but" resulted in one of the defenders heading through his own goal. Some good work by Shearcroft and Smith led to a corner, and following this Pease accepted a pass from Deeks to reduce the lead, but Uxbridge recovered their advantage when Centa, in clearing from the right wing, headed the ball to the toe of Dutton, who scored with ease. Redding netted the fifth for Uxbridge, who at the interval led by 5-1.

Uxbridge did not over-exert themselves in the second half. They had no need to do so because, except on very rare occasions, the Hampstead forwards were held with ease. Quite one of the most exciting incidents was when a penalty was awarded against Allwright for hands. Pease took the kick, and Twitchen, after stopping the shot, made a brilliant clearance. Church, who had little to do in the first half, was now seen to advantage. Once he got clean through, only to see his fine shot go inches past the upright. For long periods Hampstead were forced to play a purely defensive game. Deeks, on one occasion, showed a clean pair of heels to the Uxbridge defence, and from his centre Shearcroft headed a pretty goal. Redding and Rounce indulged in quite a lot of the pattern weaving stuff, and eventually the first-named made an opening which enabled Dutton, who was a tireless worker, to get the sixth goal for Uxbridge, and the last of the match, the end coming with Uxbridge very easy winners.
