Match declared void due to frozen pitch (decided pre-match after inspection, but not announced to spectators until the second half).[2] [3]
Final replay [ ]
The winning goal was believed by some observers not to have fully entered the goal before being cleared, and Celtic protested but the score stood. Although their use would not have resolved that particular incident, this controversy and debate led to goal nets being introduced in the latter stages of the Scottish Cup from then on.[6] [7]
Teams [ ]
^ The FitbaStats website states that Michael Dunbar (brother of Tom) played in the first match, but other reports contradict this.[2]
