Trivia
- Another all-change side in an attempt to find something that worked. No McNeill (ankle knock) or McGrain; Brogan brought back in; Hood and Wilson dropped to the bench; Welsh and Connelly retained from the Glasgow Cup side; Deans and Callaghan starting; Lynch and Davidson dropped; and the veteran Bobby Lennox brought back.
- In the Reserve League Celtic drew 1 – 1 with Airdrie at Celtic Park. The Celtic team was Barclay, Hannah, Newman, McNamara, McDonald, McAleer, McLaughlin, Casey, Ritchie, McCluskey and Burns Subs Thomson and Murphy. The Celtic scorer was Tommy Burns.
Review
Celtic play well, particularly in the first half hour, but they could not finish off their good leading up work but it all amounted to more dropped points and more blemish on the record of Celtic.
McWilliams in the Airdrie goal played well.
Latchford is responsible for losing another soft goal and there are doubts about his future. So far he and the defense had leaked 12 goals in 8 games – many of them soft goals down to him.
