Elgindon Posted January 9, 2023 Report Share Posted January 9, 2023 Came across this wee clip of festive fixtures from 1950 which caught the eye.Note the size of the crowds,and Hibs v Hearts > Celtic v Rangers,ie 65'000 v 60'000. All the other ones pretty amazing,pre Old firm glory hunter 2 Quote Link to comment https://dev.donstalk.co.uk/topic/9699-1950-new-years-derbies/
