The club lost every one of the 15 matches it contested in 1877, and scored just 4 goals while conceding 31.

At the end of the 1877 season ‘Marlborough’, writing in The Advertiser, strongly implied that the Bankers club was something of an embarrassment, and expressed the hope “that no efforts will be made to establish it next season”. The writer got his wish as, shortly afterwards, Bankers disbanded.[1]
