Trivia
- Bertie Auld dropped out and Davie Hay was named as sub. Into the front line came Kenny Dalgish. And back too was Tommy Gemmell having resolved his dispute with the club and was back in the side though his transfer request still stood..
- Jimmy Johnstone, Harry Hood and Bobby Lennox were all getting over knocks. Only Jimmy Johnstone came through a fitness test to make this game and Lennox and Hood both played for the Reserves.
- On the same weekend Celtic Reserves defeated Hearts Reserves 4-0 at Tynecastle. Vic Davidson scored 2, Paul Wilson 1 and the other was a Veitch o.g.
Review
The second defeat at home this season to an Edinburgh side. Hearts had the ball in the net even earlier but was ruled offside. Then Jensen scored from a very tight angle and just before the half time whistle Don Ford poked home the ball in a goalmouth scramble.
