Celtic fans still have an interest in other leagues in Scotland as former players take part in the Scottish Premiership play-offs.
Just last week, former Celtic teammates Mark Wilson and Scott Brown faced off as Ayr United and Partick Thistle did battle to try and gain promotion to the Scottish Premiership in the first round of the play-off ties.
Wilson came out victorious over two legs as the Partick Thistle co-manager set up a semi-final tie with David Martindale’s Livingston.
The first leg of the play-off semi-final was at Firhill Stadium and as Livingston ran out comfortable 2-0 winners, Wilson was left dumbfounded by his team’s display.
Mark Wilson laughs as ex-Celtic man suffers play-off defeat at Partick Thistle
The former Celtic defender looked dumbfounded as he laughed through his initial reply as Wilson laid out a message to the Partick Thistle players ahead of Friday night’s second leg.
Wilson was asked post match how it all went wrong for his team after their impressive fightback in the previous round against Ayr United.
Wilson told BBC Sport Scotland, “When the referee blew the first whistle, if I’m honest. Nothing quite went right for us tonight. I don’t think we had enough intensity in or out of possession.
“I thought they were the better team. I’m not being too harsh on our players because it’s been a long road and they’ve dug deep time and time again.
“Disappointing that we didn’t score at the end, but Livi were by far the better team tonight. The message is pretty clear. We need to be on the front foot come Friday.
“The players have got a lot of belief in each other. They know they can do it. You get the first goal and the tie swings again with the pressure on Livingston.”
Mark Wilson’s managerial record at Partick Thistle as former Celtic man impresses
Wilson took over Partick Thistle alongside Brian Graham after the departure of Kris Doolan at the end of March.
Promoted from the U18s side, Wilson and Graham have done a great job to get Thistle into the position they are currently in.
In eight fixtures, Thistle have won three, which included beating champions Falkirk, drawing one and lost four and are still in with a shout of being promoted to the Scottish Premiership if they can overturn their defeat to Livingston last night.
If Wilson can achieve this then maybe, just maybe, Celtic fans will see him in the Parkhead dugout to face Brendan Rodgers next season.
