St Johnstone goalie Mike McVittie manages to strangle Bobby Lennox as well as clear a corner kick as Joe McBride waits for any slip up!

Celtic's Irish Trinity all to the fore as we recover from 4-2 down to edge a 9-goal thriller with Third Lanark thanks to a last-gasp goal from Charlie Tully.
Bertie Peacock also scored as did former Arthurlie striker Jim Lafferty, his last goal for Celts.

On this day in 1924...Willie Fleming creates what I believe to be a unique record, scoring four goals on his debut, coincidentally against today's opponents Kilmarnock at Celtic Park.
He later played for Ayr and it was at his benefit game Peter Scarff's illness first manifested
Pre-war Celtic favourite Malky MacDonald later played for today’s opponents Kilmarnock , then Brentford before managing both these clubs, Killie twice in fact plus a brief spell as Scotland caretaker boss.

On this night in 1966...
Steve Chalmers gives Celtic an early lead in the Glasgow Cup final against Partick Thistle.
Bobby Lennox added a first-half hat-trick to his Ibrox treble as Celts recorded a third consecutive 4-0 win to lift the trophy for the third time in four years.
Stevie Chalmers, 406 appearances for Celtic, scoring 228 goals, one of which was a bit more important than the rest ! 🤔😎

This goalmouth of one of the pitches at Crownpoint Sports Centre, with St Mary's Church and the new halls on the right, is roughly where the old League of the Cross hall sat.

On this day in 1897...a much-weakened Celtic side celebrated the 10th anniversary of its founding with a 2-1 win over Dundee at Carolina Port.
I didn't recognise many of the line-up, including the man who scored both goals, Adam Henderson.

On this day in 1937...
Celts celebrate the golden jubilee of our founding with a 6-0 rout of Partick Thistle, a second consecutive six-goal home win without the great McGrory.
Johnny Crum and Joe Carruth both scored twice, with Willie Buchan and Chic Geatons also on target.
