Review
Celtic's first defeat of the season.
Clearly a certain amount of "previous" from the two earlier games, and Barney Battles very upset and put off his game by the barracking, and this allowed Bowie to rob him and score the winner.
The Glasgow Observerdoes not hold back talking about a "motley gang of freaks, lunatics, roughs and rowdy maniacs. They should be fenced in with bars…the public could be charged to see this wild beast show…ignorant, bestial howling… give us the moulders of Cathkin, the riveters of Ibrox, the navvies of Parkhead any day! Their linen is neither as immaculate or extensive as that of the Crosshill dudes, but they are sportsmen!"
