* Everton had been drawn to play Glasgow Rangers in the FA Cup 1st
Round.
This was to be that match - but Everton realised
before kick-off that they
would be fielding ineligible players and so withdrew
from the competition
and the match was played as a friendly instead.
Everton didn't begin playing FA Cup matches until 1887/88 and
were founder members
of the Football League, which began in 1888/89.
Prior to that the club participated in Friendly matches and local
Cup competitions.
Details are inevitably sketchy and incomplete.
Match, appearance and goal statistics are not counted in any official
records.
