As Celtic are scheduled to play Arbroath on Wednesday in a Scottish Cup replay it gave me a chance to post my only visit to Gayfield Park which was 19 years ago when failing Celtic manager Liam Brady recorded the biggest win I have ever witnessed. The only down side was it came against one of Celtic's all time greats Danny McGrain who was a rockie manager with the part-timers.
The match included two hat tricks, one Frank McAvennie and the other Andy Payton who had only came on as a substitiute!
Local man Kevin Tindall got the consolation goal for Arbroath with the last kick of the ball.
Celtic team:
Bonner, Boyd, Wdowczyk, Grant, McNally, Galloway, McGinlay, McStay, McAvennie, Nicholas, Collins;
Subs used - Payton, O'Neill
