Details |
FA Cup winners in 1915, Sheffield United. The back of this card reads: "Played at Manchester in a murky gloom quite in keeping with the surroundings associated with the second year of the Great War, the usual exuberant spirits exhibited at all Cup Finals was depressingly absent." It was the last FA Cup final to be staged before competitive football was suspended in Britain because of the First World War, and became known as the Khaki Cup Final.
