Trivia
- Wednesday November 6 Joe Dodds and Andy McAtee playing in Irish League 1 Scottish League 3. At full time Dodds and goalkeeper Hampton attacked by mob and not difficult to see a connection between mob attacking a Celtic player and anti-Catholic hysteria in Belfast at time, even though game was played at Cliftonville
Review
In spite of heavy rain, a large crowd to see table topping clash. Return of McMenemy made all the difference to Celtic.
Tom Hegarty of Hearts taken off after being kicked accidentally in face by Quinn trying to back heel a ball which was falling behind him. Hegarty eventually lost the sight of an eye.
A reference in the Dundee Sporting Post to terracing beside Grant Stand and directly opposite the pavilion being called “Wee Ireland”
