Pilgrims F.C.

[4] The club is known to have played five matches in its first season (against Forest F.C., Trojans, the return against Leyton, and Herts Rangers), and every one ended in a draw.

[5] In 1874, Pilgrims player John van Sommer was chosen as a reserve for England for the international match against Scotland.

[6] On 7 November 1874 van Sommer played in goal for the London select team in the match against the Sheffield Football Association.

[11] Again the club was unlucky to be drawn against eventual winners, this time Ashburnham Rovers, who won 3–1, the tie being held at the Kennington Oval.

[20] The two clubs were drawn against each other in the FA Cup twice (Pilgrims winning on both occasions) and Ramblers' players often played for both sides in the same season.
