Match Report

The friendly encounter between Hampstead Town and Hyde & Kingsbury was well attended, despite unfavourable weather, and resulted in a commendable win for the visitors by three goals to nil, L. Mason, H. C. Dark, and W. Wilding scoring for them. Hampstead men were severely handicapped by the early retirement of J. H. Parker with a slight injury.

Good football was impossible on a waterlogged playing pitch, but the visitors adapted themselves well to the conditions.

Hampstead took the opportunity to try three new players in the centre-half, centre forward, and outside left positions, and two of these acquitted themselves sufficiently well to warrant a further trial.

Conflicting cup ties are interfering with Hampstead’s immediate Athenian League programme, and in view of this and the present bad condition of the Child’s-hill ground it has been decided not to play on the home enclosure tomorrow [Saturday 8th January 1921].
