Trivia
- Celtic started the second half of the 1948-49 season at seventh in the Division A table with 15 points from 5 wins and 5 draws. The top five positions were occupied by Hibernian with 20 pts, 1 ahead of Rangers who had 2 games in hand, and followed by Dundee, St Mirren and Falkirk.
Review
Celtic were pretty much overwhelmed by Rangers in atrocious weather conditions, with Duncanson and Rutherford having big games. Rutherford gave Roy Milne at right back a torrid game.
