• 1. September 1896 vs. Sheppey United 0:9[6] „Schlee was by far the best of the visitors, and was repeatedly cheered for some brilliant saves.“
• 2. September 1896 vs. Chatham 0:15 [7] most inglorious exhibition of football[8]
• 3. September 1896 vs. Millwall Athletic 0:9 [9] „simply outclassed“, „their sole point of excellence was in goalkeeping, a position in which Schlee so distinguished himself that, although Millwall were hammering away at the goal throughout the game, they beat him only nine times.“[10] [11]
• 5. September 1896 vs. Crystal Palace team mainly composed of Corinthians [12] 0:13 [13], [14]

Rückfahrt am 5. September[15]

Gesamt 0:46[16], „Made in Germany“ „During their very short visit to this country they have shown themselves to be made of very poor stuff...“[17]

The latest form of German competition is that Schlee, the goalkeeper of the German Association football team that has been visiting us, has signed on for Sheppey United. He is practically the only man in the team with any idea of the game. He has lived at Woolwich, and no doubt learned the game there. [18]
