1872–73 Barnes F.C. season

This was the eleventh season of Barnes Football Club. Barnes were surprisingly eliminated in the first round of the F.A. Cup by the debutants South Norwood, despite having far greater experience with association football rules.[1] Club captain Charles Morice played for England in the first international match against Scotland.
