This game was a nasty, ill-tempered affair in which East Fife were prepared to stop Hibs by any means possible. John Brownlie was the victim of an 'over-the-top' tackle by their left-back, Ian Printy, and was stretchered off with a broken right leg. Hibs eventually got the winner in the 89th minute, - Gordon heading in Hamilton's cross.

Referee :- D.F.T. Syme, Glasgow.

Alex Edwards definitely shown a red card confirmed by Hibernian Historical Trust and an unprecedented 8 week ban
