The first matches of Sheffield FC against external opposition in 1859/60 were with the local military.

During one game at the Sheffield Barracks, Creswick, the Sheffield FC Captain became perturbed at the numical size of the military team. The game was supposed to be for twenty players a side, the Military team was found to have numbered thirty eight players.
