The match itself was always going to be a one-sided affair, with the Scottish champions and cup holders having too much class for their Highland League visitors.

Celtic won the contest 5-0 and had four goals disallowed, while Buckie played with courage and determination throughout the 90 minutes, making the most of every touch of the ball they got.

Our photos sum up a simply unforgettable day when the Jags went steaming into Celtic Park, and did Highland League football proud.
