Tommy McIntyre was pleased with his young side’s performance in the 2-1 defeat away to Bonnyrigg Rose this afternoon. The Celtic B team manager reckons his young guns did brilliant to stand up to the physicality of the experienced home side as Celtic B began their first season in the Southern League with a narrow defeat.

With so many of McIntyre’s likely squad away with the first team, who are currently drawing 0-0 with Preston North End at a very sunny Celtic Park, in front of 2000 Celtic Supporters, the Celtic B boss can probably expect some of these young stars to return to Southern League duties against East Kilbride next weekend.

Here’s Tommy McIntyre giving his post match thoughts to Celtic TV this afternoon.
