Dunfermline`s final plans were severely disrupted when Roberts had to withdraw through injury and George Henderson`s father died. Although he agreed to play, he was unable to reach the high points which he achieved in the march to Hampden.

The attendance of 39744 at Hampden on the 29th October 1949 was a record for a match between two Fife teams. East Fife were a well established First Division side and too strong for Dunfermline. The match was effectively over after half an hour when the third goal was scored. For the record the East Fife scorers were Fleming, Duncan and Morris.

For the final manager Webber Lees put out a Dunfermline team, listed in 2:3:5 format as follows:- George Johnstone; Bobby Kirk, Adam McLean; Jackie McCall, Jimmy Clarkson, Andy Whyte; Gerry Mayes, Jim Cannon, George Henderson, Tom McGairy and Stirton Smith.
