The scoreline would have been worse but Darwen agreed for three disputed goals not to be counted.

The club was drawn to play Darwen Ramblers away, and, after the referee refused a Haslingden claim of offside for a late winning goal for the Ramblers, the club walked off the pitch.

[5] The club appears to have dissolved after finishing near the bottom of the League in 1892–93,[6] the season including a 13–0 defeat by Burnley Swifts,[7] and having been excluded from the competition after the league cut down from 12 clubs to 10.

[10] The following season the club changed to navy blue shirts, knickers, and socks.

[11] The club originally played at Rye Hill,[12] but from 1880 to 1881 moved to the Show Ground, Flaxmoss.
