Trivia
- First home game of the season and a walloping from the Maryhill Magyars.
- John McDonald scores again, his second in two games, but it was to be his last goal for the club.
Review
A fairly torrid game from the newspaper accounts and one in which neither team played with any degree of credit.
What should be a bright mark is that John McDonald scored again, his second goal in two games in only his second match for Celtic. However it was to be his final match for Celtic.
