Celtic Non-Matchday Discussion

Stat zone for Celtic in 2024 - A record breaking year for the Bhoys in Green :clap::four_leaf_clover::four_leaf_clover:

:four_leaf_clover: Scottish champions Celtic have had an unforgettable last 12 months that will go down as one of their most successful years in history.

:four_leaf_clover: With only one game left they have already guaranteed their lowest amount of defeats in all competitions in a calendar year in over a century :exploding_head:

:four_leaf_clover: After 52 games they have only been defeated twice (Once in the league at Tynecastle when down to ten men and conceded a controversial penalty, and once in the Champions League against a rampant Dortmund side who had just reached the CL final months earlier)

:four_leaf_clover: That’s the fewest amount of defeats since 1919 when they were undefeated the whole year but only played 40 games - 12 fewer than 2024 - and never had any European football

:four_leaf_clover: If they avoid defeat against St Johnstone on Sunday it will be the first time in over 20 years they have been undefeated at home in all competitions for a full calendar year and only the third time in 100 years

:four_leaf_clover: They also have an 80% win record for 2024 - the highest % in the last 50 years

:four_leaf_clover: They are undefeated in 5 games against Rangers - including 4 wins and a draw

:four_leaf_clover: They have won all 3 domestic trophies available in 2024

:four_leaf_clover: That includes beating Rangers in two finals

:four_leaf_clover: They also became the most decorated club in Europe by winning their 117th, 118th and 119th major trophies

:four_leaf_clover: They also overtook Rangers in the all-time Old Firm head to head in the long history of the fixture

:four_leaf_clover: Two clean sheets away from home in the Champions League for the first time since the tournament was rebranded in 1992

:four_leaf_clover: 37 Premiership games (1 defeat)

:four_leaf_clover: 4 League Cup games (0 defeats)

:four_leaf_clover: 5 Scottish Cup games (0 defeats)

:four_leaf_clover: 6 Champions League games (1 defeat)

:four_leaf_clover: Currently sit 12 points clear at the top of the Premiership

:four_leaf_clover: Brendan Rodgers became the most successful manager in the history of the Old Firm fixture

:four_leaf_clover: James Forrest equalled Bobby Lennox as the most decorated player in the history of Scottish football

:four_leaf_clover: And to add to all that they became the first club to win both the Premiership and the SWPL in the same season

:four_leaf_clover: Their women’s team also became the first Scottish side to reach the group stage of the Women’s Champions League

Fair to say 2024 has been a year to remember for Scotland’s premier club :clap::four_leaf_clover::trophy::trophy::trophy:

Jonny Kenny is the wrong type.of player for Celtic as most teams defend deep, he be better off going to the English championship

Has @Jake_Stevens apologised for what he said about Brendan Rodgers yet?

Epic stuff. Hopefully they can get over the mighty st. Johnstone. What dreams are made of.

Before @thedancingbaby time, but Hartson and Sutton used to ragdoll those hun bastards something else. Both always well up for it with them
