Edinburgh Evening News, 3/05/1898.
The game was in aid of Renton Parish church.

Scottish Referee, 20/05/1898, confirms the keeper was Alex King.
It also seems to suggest that both sides were what could probably be called "select" sides.

Not a Celtic story, but... Alex Ferguson scored a hat-trick for Rangers 3rd team, in a 6-0 win, against GCT on 6 September 1969/

This would probably explain the extra set of shirts at Ibrox.

Turn up with two sets of jerseys & ask if the referee objects to the wearing of the (thin) hoops.

Just doing a quick search of possible games it might have been worn in...

Here it is again.

Daily Record, 1/5/23

If it wasn't for the caricature I would have assumed that the Celts in the photo were wearing hoops.
The Sunday Post is the only mention (I have seen) of the change at half-time.

No, I was hoping someone else would be able to shed some light on it.
It did appear strange to have a change of shirt available for an away game. (Also strange that it wasn't a 2nd set of the same jersey.)
The only similar style strips I have seen in photos are usually worn by goalkeepers.

Strange Celtic shirt...

I can't find anything about D Robertson.

If only there was a photo to verify the story...

I thought that would get your attention. 😂

No, sorry. That's the only image I have managed to find at the moment.

R Findlay in this photo is Roderick Findlay from Broughty Ferry.
Roderick died on the 15th December 1919 at his home at 36 Fort Street, Broughty Ferry, and is buried in Barnhill Cemetery.

No commemoration on the Scottish National War Memorial, nor CWGC.

Mr W F Campbell.

You probably already have it.
I was searching for something else & saw the advert & wondered if it was on the Wiki.

A match missing fro the Celtic Wiki... Appears to be a strong(ish) Celtic side.

Dundee Courier match report from Wednesday, 5 May 1920

Another way to look at it...
If the first game doesn't stand then the "replay" should have been played on the original ground.

Maybe ask a Queen's Park historian if it's included as a match played in their records?

That NBDM report is the only one that mentions him playing.

In a further twist... the first match appears to have stood as a cup tie.

In fact he couldn't have played in the 2nd tie as he was playing for the Reserves v QP Strollers.

I know there is a chance that the reports could have errors in them, but I thought I better share before I forgot.
