Trivia

  • Double scored by debutant Jackie Cantwell; scored both goals quickly in two minutes and it boded well for him, but the support is said to have staggered out of the ground in a daze, shocked into silence at the dismal shambles just witnessed.
  • Jimmy McMenemy is said to have put his finger on the problem that there were too many apprentices, not enough journeymen (but Cantwell was no journeyman but an apprentice and had scored twice on the day).
