There was a paper produced in Accrington in the 50s called Welfare. I suspect it was produced collectively by the main trade unions in the town. It contained some sports pages at the back, and the match report for the Liverpool FA Cup tie saw it as a missed opportunity for Stanley. The Reds were flying high in the Third Division (North) and Liverpool were mid-table in the Second Division. Somewhat different context this time!
