FA Cup

Sheffield United where considered the favourites with nine English internationals on their team.^[7] In the first game that finished 2–2 Sheffield were considered lucky as their second goal was classed as controversial. The linesman had indicated it should be a corner after George Clawley saved a shot from Walter Bennett however the referee over-ruled him for and pointed to the centre circle indicating it had been a goal.^[7] The reply which both teams wanted to be played at Villa Park,^[7] was instead played at Bolton where Tottenham won 3–1.
