Match summary

[edit]

It was the first time that either team had played in an FA Cup Final, but Manchester United went into the match as favourites, having been league champions the previous season. Despite having lost 1–0 to Bristol City atBank Street just two weeks earlier, Manchester United held a one-point advantage over their opposition with two matches still to play.[1][2]

Both teams usually wore red shirts, so, prior to the final, the FA issued them with orders to change their kit for the match.[3] Manchester United's players sported white shirts with a red V-stripe and a red rose of Lancashire on the left breast, while Bristol City chose to wear blue shirts.[4] Manchester United made an event of the presentation of their new kits, hiring contemporarymusic hall starGeorge Robey to present the uniforms to the players.

Scene of the match

Manchester Unitedinside leftSandy Turnbull had been struggling with a knee injury in recent times, but, on the morning of the match, he convinced his manager,Ernest Mangnall, that he could play. Turnbull's claim was endorsed by club captainCharlie Roberts, who told Mangnall "[Turnbull] might get a goal and if he does we can afford to carry him."[5]

The star of the Bristol City team wasBilly Wedlock, anEngland internationalcentre half, but he failed to take control of the game and was nullified by. Manchester United's half back trio ofDick Duckworth,Charlie Roberts andAlex Bell.[6] Manchester Unitedoutside rightBilly Meredith also played an important part in the match, his contribution to his team's attacking opportunities earning him the man of the match award.[7]

The only goal of the game came midway through the first half, with Charlie Roberts' earlier comments to his manager proving prophetic. As a result of a Manchester United attack, a shot fromHarold Halse hit the crossbar and the ball fell to Sandy Turnbull, who fired the ball past goalkeeperHarry Clay and into the back of the net.[5] Bristol City's closest opportunity came after a fine passing move left inside rightBob Hardy unmarked in front of goal, only to have his shot turned round the post by a divingHarry Moger.[8]

During the match, Manchester Unitedleft backVince Hayes was injured and had to be removed from the field. As substitutes were not used in those days, it meant that Manchester United were down to 10 men. Mangnall reshuffled his team to retain their numbers in defence, and, after treatment, Hayes returned to the field as a forward.[6] Despite his injury, Hayes lasted to the end of the game, and the match finished 1–0 to Manchester United. Charlie Roberts went up to receive the trophy, becoming the first Manchester United player to lift the FA Cup.[3]

After the match, the Manchester United mascot, a goat named Billy, drank too much champagne and died of alcohol poisoning. His head was preserved and hangs on the wall of the Manchester United museum at Old Trafford.[9]
