The1908 FA Cup final was contested byWolverhampton Wanderers andNewcastle United at Crystal Palace Park. Newcastle had just finished fourth in theFirst Division duringthis season, after winning the league in 1906–07. This was their third FA Cup final appearance in four years (although they had yet to win). Their 6–0 thrashing of Fulham in the semi-final is a record win for a semi-final. By contrast, Wolves had finished ninth in theSecond Division.

Nevertheless, Wolves upset the odds by winning the match 3–1, with goals byKenneth Hunt,George Hedley andBilly Harrison. James Howey scored the Magpies' reply. TheLord Mayor of London,Sir John Bell, then handed the trophy to Wolves'Billy Wooldridge.

Match summary

[edit]

Newcastle began the more composed side and launched several early attacks. They had the majority of the possession, but Wolves managed to stand resolute. On the 40-minute mark, a hurried clearance from a scramble in the Newcastle penalty area fell to Kenneth Hunt, who hit the ball back ferociously from distance, which Lawrence in the Magpies' goal could only help into the net. This was the first goal Hunt had ever scored for the club. Wolves grew in confidence with this strike and George Hedley quickly doubled their advantage with swift shot into the far corner after eluding two tackles.

James Howie gave Newcastle hope as he scored after a corner in the 73rd minute, their first Cup Final goal in three attempts, and they pushed for the equaliser. However, Wolves managed to break away and winger Billy Harrison sealed the victory to clinch the cup for a second time for theMolineux men.
