Also on this day in history, another Scottish cup final 1923 , and despite not losing a single goal in the tournament, we lost 1-0 to the tribute act, with Maley brothers managing each team

Willie Harper hesitated Cassidy nipped in for a headed goal in front of 80000 at Hampden

I went to see last Saturday
The Battle of the Greens
On the world renowned enclosure
Thats the glory of the Queens
There was very little in it
It was quite an even fight
Till a head gave the victory
To the Celtic green and white

So here’s three cheers for Celtic
And three more for the HIBS
They couldn’t share the trophy
But they shared the glittering dibs
The Cup is on the sideboard
Of the Glasgow club which means
That the losers were the greener
In the battle of the greens
