No Chippendale at Anfield


August 1, 1896
The full list of Liverpool’s players who are to uphold he honour of the Anfielders next season is: –
Harry Storer and WillieDonnelly, goalkeepers;
Archie Goldie, Tom Wilkie, Billy Dunlop, Matt McQueen, backs;
John McCartney, Joe McQue, Thomas Cleghorn, Robert Neill, John McLean, Bill Keech, John Holmes, halves;
Jimmy Ross, Fred Geary, Malcolm McVean, George Allan, Willie Michael, Frank Becton, Harry Bradshaw, John Clark, Benjamin Bull, Davie Hannah, forwards.

The statement that Harry Chippendale of the Blackburn Rovers is also down for Liverpool is hardly correct. Liverpool wanted him, and “Chip” would like to come this way, but his masters refused to let him go to a League club. – Harry Storer’s name is included in the above. Note, Liverpool South Enders.
