Final Queen’s Park v Vale of Leven wo-scr Vale of Leven had asked for a postponement due to a family bereavement but were refused

The final was due to be played on Saturday, 23 March. However by the previous Wednesday it was clear that because of bereavement, illness and injury, three Vale players would be unavailable, six of their reserves were also indisposed. The Vale asked the SFA for a postponement but as they had apparently not given an full explanation, were refused. The SFA committee who met after Vale’s no-show was chaired by the President of the SFA, who happened to be a Queen’s Park member who didn’t excuse himself from proceedings despite the vested interest. However the narrowness of the vote to award the Cup to Queens - 7-6 – was noted in the press who commented about renaming the SFA the 'Queen’s Park and Rangers Association'.

Final at Rollo's Pier, Dundee 22 Dec Arbroath v Dundee Harp 2-1 abandoned after 85 minutes due break-in by crowd but the result stood after a protest.

A Forfarshire FA was proposed after an initial meeting at the Imperial Hotel in Dundee on 24 January 1883 by eight Dundee clubs plus representatives from Arbroath FC. Seventeen clubs subsequently met on the 31st at the same venue and the FFA was founded. A cup competition was also set up on with £35 being spent on buying the trophy, the money coming from proceeds of exhibition matches between the member clubs. This was regarded, like other county cups during the 19th Century, as prestigious as the .
