F = Friendly FAC Q1 = F.A. Cup Qualifying Round 1 LCC R1 = Luton Charity Cup Round 1. The club decided not to enter the Kettering Charity Cup – it was thought better to play “Ordinary” (Friendly) games and receive gate money than play mediocre teams for hardly any money.
Bold is a home game.

*I have given this goal to J.C. Lomax – the description is that a cross came in and Lomax and the brothers Whitby rushed it through. As J.C. Lomax is the first named I have awarded him the goal.
