Ebenezer Cobb Morley: Google Doodle commemorates football's discovering pop

Prior to Morley drawn up the 1st 13 rules of football, the game was a clutter of contradictory views, for players and also viewers.
Prior to 1863, football was a disorderly and mostly uncontrolled sports, with varying sets of guidelines that increased to the misunderstandings.

The 1st protocols of football were officially drafted by Ebenezer Cobb Morley, whose 187th birthday is observed Thursday by Google Doodle.
Morley was born in Hull, England, and following starting Barnes Football Club he proceeded to go on to set up the Football Association (FA), the sport's top rated body in England.

As chief of Barnes Football Club, he quickly recognized how crazy and thrashing the game could be, and had written a letter to the well-known newspaper Bell's Life, recommending a set of standard guidelines. The letter finally led to a now-historic conference, led by Morley, at the Freeman's Tavern on October 26, 1863.
