Review
A day of torrential rain and wind. The game might have been stopped at half time or even earlier, but Mr Murray continued until 87 minutes had gone when the rain made life impossible and daylight had disappeared.
Most of the crowd had "scampered" out of the ground thinking that Dundee had won 1-0, but Celtic objected for there were three minutes left, and the Scottish League subsequently upheld their appeal for the game to be replayed.
In spite of the conditions, the game was well fought and Celtic felt that might just have got a draw in the last three minutes.
