Tuesday, August 28 – 1945 It is curious that Bolton Wanderers, 1944-45 North Cup winners, should be here to open both Goodison Park and Anfield, but we could not have wished for a better club or side. Believe me the Wanderers are a brilliant team when they settle […]

Thursday, August 23 – 1945 Liverpool, who open their season with a visit to Burnley, will field a strong eleven. Balmer, now thoroughly fit – he was in good form on the German tour – returns to the attack, but unfortunately Cyril Done is not yet able to […]
