Cuthbert Burnup

Cuthbert James "Pinky" Burnup (21 November 1875 – 5 April 1960) was an English amateur sportsman who played cricket and football around the turn of the 20th century.

[1] He played on the left wing and was considered a quick player who could dribble the ball effectively.

[1] He toured with Corinthian to South Africa in 1897 and helped the club win the London Charity Cup in the same year.

Whilst at Cambridge, Burnup was selected to represent England against Scotland at Celtic Park in Glasgow in April 1896.

The match, part of the 1896–97 British Home Championship, ended with England losing 2–1, the first Scottish victory in the fixture for 20 years.

[11][13] He was described by The Guardian as "essentially a sound, steady batsman" who contrasted with the flamboyant Kenneth Hutchings, Kent's leading run scorer of the season.
