Ferguson was damaged in yesterday’s match at Anfield, and will be unable to play at Sunderland to-morrow. This mishap will interfere with his fine record of consistent service. He has appeared without a break in every match since he signed for Liverpool, and has made sixty consecutive appearances. Peake is going with the team to Sunderland and will probably play at half back. The forwards will be chosen from the following: Sheldon, Lacey, Gracie, Miller, Dawson, Parkinson, and Mackinlay. The Liverpool team will not be chosen until late on.
