notes
  • The OH (by process of elimination) credits Mathie with Thistle's 4th, but the DR report states that “A soft angular ground shot by O'Donnell saw the Clyde keeper make his effort hours late.” If true, this would mean a hat-trick for Willie O'Donnell, yet their “Football Yesterday” results panel says O'Donnell (2) Sharp and Mathie! GH says O'Donnell (2), Sharp and Mathie but doesn't describe the goals. SC says O'Donnell (2), Mathie and Sharp but again, carries no report. OH says O'Donnell (2), Mathie and Sharp. Whilst it's tempting to go with the only actual report (hat-trick for O'Donnell) we stick with the majority view, especially since the DR contradicts itself.
