£20: 6: 3 being 10% of such receipts (less expenses) to
the League and £91: 8: 2 being 50% of the net

Liverpool The Secretary read a letter of March 8th from Mr.
Schools F. A. C. Waddington enclosing a letter from the Chairman
of the Glasgow Primary Schools F. A. in which home
and home fixtures at Glasgow and Liverpool were
suggested on half net gate terms with a guarantee of
£30. Mr. Waddington wrote that the Liverpool
Schools F. A. with their limited income could not hope
to meet such guarantee and suggested that the
Everton Club come to their aid and undertake the
match at Goodison Park. After discussion the
Secretary was instructed to reply, subject to
Liverpool's approval, offering the Liverpool Schools F. A.
the free use of our ground on Good Friday or any
Saturday afternoon during the season on which the
ground was not engaged, but that we could not
guarantee the sum of £30 desired.
