Biog

Wing-half Peter McManus made just a solitary appearance for Celtic after signing for the Bhoys from St Bernard’s in June 1895. He was part of the St Bernards team that won the Scottish Cup in 1895 so possibly a good acquisition.

His one and only senior competitive game (League or Scottish Cup) came in a 3-0 defeat to his old club on September 16th 1895.

Ironically, he returned to his former club the very next month after failing to impress Willie Maley of his ability.

After football, he was a garage hand in West Calder.
