Yorkshire Teams Opposed. The luck of the draw has brought the two Yorkshire clubs together, while London meet Lancashire in the Midlands.
It is a draw which will meet with general satisfaction, as both Huddersfield and Sheffield United have won the cup in recent years, Huddersfield In 1921-22, and Sheffield United in 1924-25, while the Arsenal have never had the honour, and Blackburn Rovers, after a long series of successes, have never reached the Anal since 1890-91.
