Hoops defender admits Treble loss was hard to swallow

- BY NAME HERE

AUSTON TRUSTY admits missing out on the Treble felt like a punch in the guts.

But the Celtic defender insists the champions have the stomach for another crack at the clean sweep after the Scottish Cup sickener.

Brendan Rodgers’ men romped the Premiership having already pocketed the Premier Sports Cup earlier in the campaign.

The Treble was in their sights against an Aberdeen side Celts had battered from pillar to post all season.

The Dons ripped up the script though at Hampden to humble the Hoops and send them into the summer feeling down in the dumps.

Trusty admitted it wasn't the finale they had in mind - but it’s only got the squad riled up for another tilt this term.

Celts kick off their Premiership title defence against St Mirren on Sunday.

And Trusty has warned the Parkhead men mean business.
