Gordon Marshall (Senior)

There was a full back recently as well but can't remember his name. Played a few for them and came to us which seemed to annoy them. Think he was maybe Dutch but didn't stay long. Adam Eckersley as well but not even sure if he ever played a game for Hibs. Probably a few others

Correct but need the official attendance. It is also the largest crowd to watch Rangers play.

Young goalie George Farm standing in for the injured Kerr dropped a straight forward cross into the box in a rare Rangers breakaway allowing Rangers to score the only goal of the game

The Sunday Post summed it up as one team who wanted to play football and play the game the proper way playing against a team that wanted to win the cup at all cost

George Farm went on to win the FA Cup with Blackpool
