Liverpool v. Bury.
This postponed league match will be played to-morrow (Thursday). Never since the league was instituted has the competition been so close as it is at present, and it looks as if the match on the 29th inst. at Aston-park will settle the location of the championship for another season, so that it behoves the Anfielders to put forth their best efforts to secure points both to-morrow and Saturday. Kick off 5:45. Goal, Bill Perkins; backs, Archie Goldie and Billy Dunlop; half-backs, Rab Howell, Alex Raisbeck, and Charlie Wilson; forwards, John Cox, John Walker, George Allan, Tom Robertson, and Hugh Morgan.
