Notes

  1. ^ The Lincoln City FC Archive and Michael Joyce's Football League Players' Records give the player's surname as Eyre. However, contemporary newspapers, including the Liverpool Mercury (1895 and 1897), the Nottinghamshire Guardian (1896), the Sheffield & Rotherham Independent (1896), and the Manchester Guardian (1897), frequently, but not exclusively, refer to him as Eyres.
