Trivia
- Jock Stein named an unchanged squad from the one that had put eight goals past Dundee the previous weekend. Hughes and Connelly were both fit to play and had come through a Reserves game. David Hay was fit again and played with Jim Brogan dropping to the subs bench.
- Gate receipts £6600
- The previous night Celtic's Reserves beat Ayr Utd Reserves 3-1 with a side that included Lennox, Connelly, Hughes and Macari. On this day they played Motherwell Reserves drawing 2-2.
Review
Celtic moved smoothly into the quarter finals without any trouble at Parkhead.
Bertie Auld showed great pace for a man said to be in the closing years of his career and Tommy Callaghan continued his fine run of form with another goal. Jim Craig showed that, on this form, he was the best overlapping full back in the country.
Evan Williams was a virtual spectator throughout and the Queens' goal came when Dempster headed in a corner from Murray.
