Trivia
- Raith's performance is compared to those of the "Alex James era" with Ernest Till getting the fourth goal, and only a top performance by Joe Kennaway prevents a bigger defeat.
- Robert Duffy plays his second league match of the season, and his last game for Celtic.
- Peattie of Raith was injured in the warm-up and his place was taken by Whitelaw whose contribution was immense.
- The frozen ground meant the postponement of seven First Division matched.
- In England Ronnie Rooke of Fulham scored all six of his club's goals in their rout of Bury at Craven Cottage.
- Franco's planes bomb the cities of Valencia and Barcelona.
