Trivia

  • Celtic's first game against Chelsea since 1964.

Review

Celtic fans were disappointed that ex Celt David Hay was injured and could not play. Celtic, still reeling from Dalglish's departure, cannot finish off the newly promoted London division side despite second half pressure, a pattern that would emerge throughout the next eight months.

Youngsters Ray Wilkins and Tommy Burns impress in midfield.
