Key note: “There was a capital crowd for the last game of the season at Anfield, where Manchester City were the visitors. Mackinlay took his fourth benefit after nineteen years’ service, and the Edge Hill Band appeared in smart new plum-coloured uniforms of a military design, with plenty of gold trimmings that were generally admired.” (Liverpool Echo: May 4, 1929)
