Tuesday, September 5 – 1939
The directors of Liverpool and Everton football clubs met as usual last night –with the item “team selection” missing from the agenda. Both boards discussed football of the future, and what will become regarding players contracts. No decision was made however. Both Boards decided it would be better to await the decisions of today’s meeting of the Football League Management Committee, and also the important joint conference between the League and the Football Association, which takes place on Friday. Both Boards will meet again next week to settle matters.
