teamline notes
  • Thistle per OH (excepting 'keeper), Dundonians per SR (predicted line-up).
  • The OH lists James Crozier in goals, but the DC report distinctly says Thistle "appeared without Crozier". Rather, Roberson is mentioned several times as playing in goals for Thistle. Thankfully, at least half of the OH team are mentioned in the body of the DC report, so it might not be so bad.
extra notes
  • Dundonians was the original name of the merger of Strathmore and Johnstone Wanderers in January 1894, before Dundee Wanderers was chosen in June 1894.
dubious goals panel
  • OH has this listed as a 1-1 draw, but detailed reports in the SC/GH say it was 1-0 to the homesters and we go with them.
attendance notes
  • 1000 (OH)
