Trivia

  • With the League decided and Celtic out of the European Cup things were somewhat more relaxed. Everbody was now waiting on the Scottish Cup Final.
  • Frank Welsh makes a rare appearance at centre half.

Review

Celtic rested Connaghan, Murray, McNeill, Hood and Johnstone with a view to Saturday's SCF with Dundee United.
The outcome was a fairly dismal match at Pittodrie. Aberdeen had most of the play and were pinned back into their own half in the first half. The defence was strong enough to hold off the challenge from Aberdeen despite having to soak up lots of pressure.
