Trivia

• Sean Fallon moved back to left back; Collins, who had been dropped to make way for fallon at centre forward in the Cup Final replay, was back on the right wing, Jimmy Walsh moved to centre forward; Neil Mochan came back in. Meechan and McPhail both dropped out.
• The last game of the season saw Celtic confirmed as runners up - there had been an outside chance that Hearts might pip them - and Stirling Albion (who had a torrid season) and Motherwell relegated to Division B. Airdrieonians and Dunfermiline were promoted to Division A. Season Table.
  

Review

On six minutes Mochan lobbed over a speculative ball which Watters let drop behind him and into the goal. two minutes later, Armstrong the Hearts right half was stretchered off the field and did not appear in the second half. The Celtic forwards hammered at Watters goal and the Hearts attack was toothless. Collins got a second and Mochan a third after the interval.
