Match Trivia

At Ibrox Park, estimated attendance 18,000 drawings (gate and stands) £455. Rangers ought to have scored in the first two minutes, McDonald twice having shots luckily cleared. Airdrieonians left wing were always dangerous, and from one of Young’s centres Hunter nearly scored. Corners fell to both sides and latterly, following by a free kick the Rangers centre scored from a pass by A Smith, and they led by this goal at halftime. The game in the second half was to the forcible side but Rangers were distinctly the better eleven and J Smith scored a second goal in much the same fashion as he got the first
