Celtic are a big very big side who score most if not all their tries from a yard or two out. The Rangers boys had trouble containing their size and power, but Celtic struggled to contain our pace, but in the end they just pipped us by 1 try.

Stanley try scorers were Tom Sowerby (1) Alex Clegg (1) Big Nial Fitzsimons (2) and Sean Smith, with (1) Sean was awarded the Man of the Match by Celtic's coaches, and fully deserved the award. big Nial again proved how valuable he is in defence with yet another top tackler award, and Harry Smith getting the magic moment for his tenacity in the dummy half slot.
