Season in focus
Newton Heath played in the Combination, a competition whose incomplete programme means the final table position is uncertain. Jack and Roger Doughty shared the scoring lead with six goals. This was an early organisational experiment rather than a conventional league season, documenting the club’s path toward the Football Alliance and eventually the Football League.
