There was a bit of battling that day,(not unusual back then) but not sure thats the reason for gaps in the Cave.
It was a significant match for oldco,so a lot of Hibby's might have just given it a miss that day.
The North Enclosure ( under the North Wing Stand ) was the place to be for the more mature radge :greengrinQuote:

I am sure that I read in one of the Hibs books that the 1923 cup final was the tipping point as to when Celtic finally became the Irish people's club. Up until then many weegie Irish people still followed Hibs but a lack of ambition from us spelt the change.
Hibs were on a mission to claim their place as the Premier Irish club in ScotlandQuote:

The cup replay was I’m pretty sure an afternoon game not an evening one.Hibs played well against a good Rangers side. Rangers moaned for years about a Ralph Brand goal being chalked off because he’d punched the ball out of Leslie’s hands.
Brilliant as always Billy.
Not sure things are rare anymore when they’re on YouTube but it’s rerr to watch.
The match was played in midweek ( Wednesday) maybe an early kick off according to all reportsQuote:

The fates conspire against us as the SFA order that we play a League game 24 hours before the Cup Final Replay
Celtic would go on to complete the domestic double
The cup replay against Aberdeen led to a change in the rules. We listed McLeod and one other(maybe Campbell)as 12 and 14 -the accepted numbers for subs on the team sheet but they were in the starting 11. Aberdeen protested after the game but we pointed out that the rules only stated that 13 players should be listed. The rules were subsequently changed to show a starting 11 plus subs.
It was a very foggy night and I followed a supporters bus away from the match for some distance until I noticed it was an Ayrshire supporters bus.

Hibs finally got a deserved revenge for the 6-1 humiliation in May at Hampden with an outstanding performance
Skipper Pat Stanton inspiring his team from midfield instigating wave after wave of attack with his driving runs leading by example scoring the first and laying on the second for his old Holy Cross Academy pal Jimmy O’Rourke
Hibs had chances to add to their score with Billy McNeil clearing a drive off the line from Alan Gordon and even although King Kenny pulled one back for the champions in 73 minutes HIBS held out for a deserved victory
After the match Celtic Manager Jock Stein personally stood and congratulated every HIBS player and shook each one by the hand as they left the field
Probably the highlight of my HIBS supporting career a brilliant performance against a very good Celtic side

Top scorer Joe McBride was relegated to the bench and fans’ favourite Johnny Graham was nowhere to be seen
HIBS started well and were denied a stonewall penalty when Larry Lloyd blatantly pulled back Kenny Davidson inside the box The Referee ignored furious claims from the HIBS players and fans and waved play on
Hibs had chances to score but ultimately they came to nothing
The fans got their wish and Joe McBride was introduced with half an hour remaining After five minutes Arthur Duncan bulleted home a header from an Eric Stevenson cross but the goal was unfairly disallowed as the Referee claimed that Joe McBride had fouled Ray Clemence in the build up to the goal a claim McBride later denied in the dressing room after the game
On 75 minutes going down the slope Steve Heighway used his searing pace to hit the byline a low hard ball across goal a slip by Jim Black “Toshack!” 1-0 Liverpool

If I recall, Big John was called up by a few of his team mates to take a penalty...., which he duly hit straight at the goalie.
