Tommy McIntyre has named his team for the Celtic B clash against Annan in the SPFL Trust Trophy. The manager has named 7 changes for the game at Penny Cars Stadium in Annan. It is an extremely strong XI from Celtic as they look to book their place in the next round of the tournament.
McIntyre’s side ran out 2-0 winners against Bo’ness at the weekend as they moved up to 6th in the table. However, he has decided to bring in a number of First Team fringe players as he looks to seal his side’s place in the next stage.

Ryan Mullen starts in goal as Oluwayemi drops to the bench. Lee O’Connor starts at right-back, Dane Murray partners captain Bosun Lawal in the centre of defence with Brody Paterson at left-back.
Kerr McInroy, Luca Connell and Scott Robertson start in the midfield of the park along with new signing Liam Shaw. Attackers Adam Brooks and Owen Moffat make up the XI. It looks as if it is a 4-4-2 but McIntyre could be a 3-5-2.
Hopefully, the young Celts can see it through and bring back a win.
