Where James Forrest ranks among pantheon of Celtic goal scoring greats to have netted in consecutive seasons

Celtic stalwart James Forrest has officially moved above the likes of Paul McStay and Jimmy McGrory in the club’s goal scoring charts of players to have found the net in consecutive seasons.

The veteran Hoops winger helped wrap up a 3-1 Premiership win over Aberdeen in stoppage-time at Parkhead on Sunday, but his goal had an even greater significance because it meant he had found the net for the 17th top-flight campaign in a row, stretching way back to his debut strike in May 2010.

Forrest was already featuring prominently among an elite list of names to have achieved such a remarkable scoring streak - but where exactly does he now rank after surpassing two Celtic legends?

The record currently set by a Celtic player is 18 consecutive seasons, meaning the 39-times capped Scotland international could have the chance to match that feat if he stays put beyond next summer.
