Entry to the Greenock
& District Charity Cup was as usual by invitation only, and the
competition also attracted strong clubs from outwith the area including
Dumbarton and St Mirren. Port-Glasgow Athletic only entered twice, in 1884-85
and 1887-88, as they appeared to fall out with the organisers. Morton won the
last Senior competition in 1894, although the tournament lasted through the
rest of the 1890s amongst the Junior clubs.
