Match Pictures | Matches: 19051906 | 1905-06 League

Trivia

  • A seismic shock!
  • Celtic without Sunny Jim and Napoleon go down at home to an incredulous Port team. Conditions were treacherous, Willie Orr missed a penalty and Celtic actually scored at the end, but the referee had already blown for full time. Not a good day, but Rangers also lost to Third Lanark. A good day for Hearts!
