Trivia

  • A dour struggle and a major disappointment for Celtic whose "breathing in of the ozone" seemed to do them little good, whereas Dundee who had "sojourned in the atmosphere of jute mills" seemed better trained.
  • Celtic played in rubber-soled boots which was a mistake on the hard ground, and had to take it in turns to change
