MATCH REPORT : ST HELENS V ELLAND 15 MARCH 1890

The Saints had to send their wagonette to fetch them from St. Helens Junction following further shenanigans on the railway. Consequently the match was delayed and only commenced at 4.15 p.m. The visitors arrived with five men short and the proceedings were witnessed by a meagre gathering.

Given that Elland were playing with depleted ranks their efforts in forcing a drawn game might be commended.

Score: - St Helens 3 tries and 4 minors to Elland 1 goal and 3 minors.
