The first match, played at Northwood Park in Cowes, ended in a 1β1 draw; the Cowes captain
|
9831_32
|
requested extra time but Carter refused, claiming that the team would miss their ferry home from
|
9831_33
|
the Isle of Wight. The replay at the County Ground was also drawn, thus requiring a third match.
|
9831_34
|
The sides had each scored once by half-time and the scores were level when a shot from M. Warn was
|
9831_35
|
caught well behind the line by the Cowes goalkeeper who quickly threw the ball out. After claims
|
9831_36
|
and counter-claims from both teams, the referee awarded a goal to St. Mary's. After the match,
|
9831_37
|
Cowes lodged a formal written protest with the Hampshire F.A. which was initially rejected but this
|
9831_38
|
was overturned after an appeal from Cowes, who claimed that the linesman had stopped the ball with
|
9831_39
|
his flag while it was still in play. The third replay, also at the County Ground, was a heated
|
9831_40
|
affair watched by a crowd estimated at 7,000 but St. Mary's won 4β1 to earn their place in the
|
9831_41
|
final. This was played at Bar End, Winchester against Christchurch on 6 April and was rather an
|
9831_42
|
anti-climax, with St. Mary's winning 3β0 to retain the trophy. In 1891, St. Mary's had a relatively
|
9831_43
|
straightforward passage to the final of the Hampshire Junior Cup, where they defeated Lymington
|
9831_44
|
2β0. Having won the cup for three consecutive years, the Saints retained the trophy permanently.
|
9831_45
|
In the following season, St. Mary's entered the Hampshire Senior Cup for the first time and reached
|
9831_46
|
the final against the winners of the two previous years, the Royal Engineers based at Aldershot. In
|
9831_47
|
the final, played at the County Ground on 14 March 1891, the Saints took an early lead through
|
9831_48
|
Ernie Nicholls before "a rare slip" from Carter allowed the engineers to equalise. Two second-half
|
9831_49
|
goals, from Frank Bromley and Bob Kiddle, saw St. Mary's claim the senior cup for the first time.
|
9831_50
|
The success in local cup competitions prompted the club committee to enter a national tournament
|
9831_51
|
for the first time β in the First Qualifying Round of the FA Cup on 3 October 1891, they played at
|
9831_52
|
Warmley near Bristol winning comfortably 4β1, with Carter scoring his only goal in a competitive
|
9831_53
|
match. The draw for the next round was a home match against Reading to be played on 24 October
|
9831_54
|
1891. Two weeks before the tie at the Antelope Ground, the Saints arranged a friendly against the
|
9831_55
|
93rd Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders, after which two members of the Highlanders side, Pte. Jock
|
9831_56
|
Fleming and Sgt. Alexander McMillan, were signed by the Saints. The FA Cup 2nd Qualifying match was
|
9831_57
|
played at the Antelope Ground on 24 October, and ended in a 7β0 victory to the "Saints", in which
|
9831_58
|
Private Fleming featured strongly with his aggressive style of play earning him a hat-trick. At the
|
9831_59
|
reception after the match, the Reading secretary asked for, and received, an advance of Β£3 on the
|
9831_60
|
share of the gate money. With this he immediately sent a telegram of protest accompanied by the
|
9831_61
|
necessary fee of 2 guineas to the Football Association claiming that the Saints had fielded
|
9831_62
|
illegally registered players in Fleming and McMillan. The claim was upheld by the F.A., who found
|
9831_63
|
that the players had not been registered at least 28 days before the match, and as the Saints had
|
9831_64
|
not complied with the requirements of Rule 5 they were thus expelled from the competition.
|
9831_65
|
In March 1892, St. Mary's retained the Hampshire Senior Cup, with an easy 5β0 victory over a
|
9831_66
|
Medical Staff team.
|
9831_67
|
In the Second Qualifying Round of the 1892β93 FA Cup, St. Mary's were easily defeated 4β0 by
|
9831_68
|
Maidenhead, for whom three goals were scored by F.W. Janes. St. Mary's promptly signed Janes on
|
9831_69
|
professional terms, but the signing was revoked by the Football Association, who judged that he was
|
9831_70
|
"in no fit condition to realise what he was doing when he signed for Southampton".
|
9831_71
|
St. Mary's also competed in the Hampshire Senior Cup in 1892β93, hoping to claim a third
|
9831_72
|
consecutive victory. After 2β0 wins over the Royal Engineers and a side from Portsmouth, they
|
9831_73
|
reached the final against local rivals Freemantle. The final was played on 11 March 1893 at the
|
9831_74
|
County Ground in front of a substantial crowd who threatened to spill onto the pitch. Freemantle
|
9831_75
|
led 1β0 at half-time before Jack Dollin equalised. With the score 1β1 and only a few minutes left
|
9831_76
|
to play, a Freemantle forward, Horton, was about to score past Ralph Ruffell in the Saints' goal
|
9831_77
|
when he was tripped by William Stride. Despite protests from the "Saints", the referee awarded a
|
9831_78
|
penalty to Freemantle, which was converted by Shirley Hawkins, giving Freemantle their first
|
9831_79
|
trophy. After the match, Carter protested to the referee that the foul had been committed outside
|
9831_80
|
the penalty area, saying that he could point out the exact spot where the offence occurred. The
|
9831_81
|
referee, Mr. Royston Bourke, replied: "In that case, I suggest you have a tombstone erected over
|
9831_82
|
it."
|
9831_83
|
In 1893β94, St. Mary's, by now largely a professional side, were again eliminated from the FA Cup
|
9831_84
|
in the qualifying rounds, going out to Reading. Carter damaged a leg in a friendly match in
|
9831_85
|
December 1893 thus ending his playing career. With George Marshall now playing at right-back, St.
|
9831_86
|
Mary's reached the final of the Hampshire Senior Cup again in March 1894, but were defeated 1β0 by
|
9831_87
|
the Royal Engineers.
|
9831_88
|
Carter was unable to fully recover from his leg injury and he retired from playing football in May
|
9831_89
|
1894, thus missing the club's first season in the Southern League. In his seven years with St.
|
9831_90
|
Mary's, Carter made six appearances in the FA Cup, scoring once; he also played in the finals of
|
9831_91
|
seven local cup tournaments, of which only the 1893 final of the Hampshire Senior Cup ended in
|
9831_92
|
defeat.
|
9831_93
|
Later career
|
9831_94
|
Following his retirement, Carter was presented with a gold watch. He continued to work for the
|
9831_95
|
club, and in 1901 he became the manager of the reserve team, continuing in this role until the
|
9831_96
|
start of World War I, helping to develop the careers of players such as Fred Harrison, Frank
|
9831_97
|
Jefferis and Arthur Dominy.
|
9831_98
|
After he stepped down as reserve-team manager, Carter was made a life-member of Southampton
|
9831_99
|
Football Club. He was a member of the Southampton Amateur Swimming Club, and represented Hampshire
|
9831_100
|
at water polo.
|
9831_101
|
He was employed by the Ordnance Survey in Southampton, until he retired in 1927, after 40 years'
|
9831_102
|
service.

Casting
|
9832_3
|
Following the cancellation of GH spinoff, Port Charles, actor Michael Easton originated the role of
|
9832_4
|
FBI agent John McBain on OLTL on October 1, 2003. In 2006, there were reports that contract
|
9832_5
|
negotiations were not going well, and Easton would be leaving the show. Fans speculated he might
|
9832_6
|
join GH, where his former co-star, Kelly Monaco (Livvie Locke), had gone after the Port Charles
|
9832_7
|
cancellation. Other rumors included him returning to Days of Our Lives where he played Tanner.
|
9832_8
|
However, Easton reached an agreement, and was able to stay with OLTL until its cancellation in
|
9832_9
|
January 2012. When the cancellation of OLTL was first announced, Easton initially signed with
|
9832_10
|
Prospect Park to have his character move to the online version of OLTL. But when Prospect Park's
|
9832_11
|
plans fell through, Easton signed a contract with GH, making his debut on March 13, 2012. When
|
9832_12
|
several former Port Charles characters & actors were brought to GH, writers revisited the vampire
|
9832_13
|
storyline, and Easton started to play a dual role of John and an adaptation of his PC character
|
9832_14
|
Caleb Morley on GH in February 2013. Due to Prospect Park's renewed plans to revive OLTL in January
|
9832_15
|
2013, Easton's contract came into question, making his future as McBain on GH unsure. Easton was
|
9832_16
|
forced to leave GH in February 2013 due to contract disputes, with his last show airing March 20,
|
9832_17
|
2013. Easton returned to GH in May 2013 as a new character, Dr. Silas Clay.
