At Southport. Special interest was centred in the meeting of these teams, as the destination for the League Cup depended on the result of the tie. A big crowd assembled, and the first part of the game was all in favour of Southport, who led at the interval by a goal to none. Play favoured Southport during the rest of the game. Final – Southport Central, 1 goal; Blackpool, nil.
