Collapse: In the 78th minutes was help up for twenty minutes after a wall collapsed and injured many spectators. The injured were taken to the changing rooms and so severe were the injured that Wolves goalkeeper Teddy Peers fainted and was unable to return to the pitch and when play restarted Billy Hughes went into goal. Wolves in fact as a team did not want to play the remainder of the match. Wolves put in a protest as the Referee blew for the end of the match after just 80 minutes. Ultimately the FA turned down the protest.
