Leeds assumed to be wearing their normal kit but photographic proof not found. Neal was injured after 20 minutes so Furness dropped back to left-half and Cochrane moved inside and the injured man took up residence on the wing until half-time - though unable to run. Reports vary on the exact extent of his participation in the second-half but the consensus is he tried to resume just after Leeds had taken the lead but had left the field permanently before the second goal.
23/10/37	FLD1	Wolverhampton Wanderers	H	13,304	L	1	-Buckley 58 Jones 15, 22	2	(0-2)		?	W.Lewington
The time that Armes retired from the game is approximate as newspaper reports varied from "early in the second-half" to "with half an hour left to play". The Halifax Chronicle's on the whistle report mentions his leaving the field before descripton of the Leeds goal, which suggests it was with the score still at 0-2 given the chronological nature of such accounts. Meanwhile the Daily Herald remarked that Leeds "with ten men made a splendid rally".
