FOOTBALL CHAT. [BY "LINESMAN."] The game last Saturday between the Rovers and IMachynlleth proved to be very interesting, although rmarred to a certain extent by the wet weather. It '■was generally expected that the visitors would run -the homesters a very close game, and their defeat iwas somewhat of a surprise. They showed very pretty combination but their attack lacked sting, the defence not being very severely pressed, except on one or two occasions. iOf the forwards Billy Vaughan easily led and tplayed a fine game from start to finish. The remainder of the forwards wpre a very level quartet .-and the same may be said of the half-backs who were hard working and useful. The two backs got through a lot of work, but Evans was inclined to be rough, a feature which at once condemns a player. The goalkeeper was a steady and reliable player, and for the goals scored he cannot be blamed. On the home side, the forwards played a very steady and unselfish game, with perhaps just a little more swing in Gladstone Davies and Joe Edwards than the others. The halves worked splendidly, B Jones and Henry Cotton being in splendid trim; while Roberts, who was out of regular practice, did very well. The backs were safe and reliable, but Jones in goal surpassed himself, clearing some very stiff attempts in grand ^The referee got through his work nicely, but as is usual, when a home man takes the whistle, his decisions are always questioned, whether they are above reproach or not. Readiness to seize hold of any pretext, however trifling, to disparage opponents, is to say the least, unsportsmanlike. The Towyn Wednesday paid a visit to Barmouth ,and after a well-contested game, returned home victorious by one goal to nil. They deserved to win on the day's play, and a goal which was dis- allowed for off-side was suspicious. Jones in goal was me pica: or tue calves, whne the for- wards were best represented by Roberts and Edmunds. The goal scored by Williams was a very fine effort and deserves mention. The return match will be paid shortly at the Corbett Arms ground.
