Tuesday arrived and we were all looking forward to game. We went out in the morning to do a light session to get the ready for the game. I was told I wouldn’t be playing in the match but would be having a full game against Motherwell on Friday. Unfortunately we lost the match 5-1. Adam Barton getting a consolation for us. Despite my protestations after our last meeting there was no shame in losing to Celtic on this occasion. They played some excellent football and are a very good team who also had many players older than us as they played an under 19 side against our under 18 side.
