Forrest has spent more than two decades of his 34 years on Celtic’s books, with the Parkhead club having beaten rivals Rangers to his signature as a youth player.<\/p>\n
He has gone on to become Celtic’s most decorated player with 26 trophies, which is one more than Lisbon Lion Bobby Lennox and two clear of current captain Callum McGregor. <\/p>\n
There have been plenty of goals alongside the silverware and Forrest has netted in all 17 seasons so far.<\/p>\n
The incredible streak began in May 2010 when the winger – then a fresh-faced 20-year-old – marked his Celtic debut by flicking in the third goal of a 4-0 win over Motherwell.<\/p>\n
His latest goal came 15-and-a-half years later with a sidefoot finish to complete a 3-1 victory over Aberdeen last December as Wilfried Nancy got what would be the first of only two wins during his shambolic reign.<\/p>\n
That was the 110th goal of Forrest’s Celtic career and his impressive, game-changing Scottish Cup semi-final cameo against St Mirren last weekend was his 564th appearance for the club. <\/p>\n
In setting up Kelechi Iheanacho’s extra-time effort, Forrest took his assists haul to 112.<\/p>\n
The Scotland international has started 369 Celtic games and appeared as a substitute 195 times.<\/p>\n
Forrest’s most fruitful scoring seasons came in consecutive treble-winning campaigns, netting 17 goals in both 2017-18 and 2018-19. He almost made it three in a row, scoring 16 times the following campaign.<\/p>\n
His strike this season moved him above Paul McStay and Jimmy McGrory (both 16) and level with Bobby Lennox on 17 successive seasons of scoring. <\/p>\n
The only player in Celtic history with a better record is Jimmy McMenemy, who netted in 18 straight campaigns from 1902. Forrest will have that target in his sights next term.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Forrest has spent more than two decades of his 34 years on Celtic’s books, with the Parkhead club…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":546303,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[59,101,56,54,55],"class_list":{"0":"post-546394","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-sports","8":"tag-gb","9":"tag-sports","10":"tag-uk","11":"tag-united-kingdom","12":"tag-unitedkingdom"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/546394","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=546394"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/546394\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/546303"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=546394"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=546394"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=546394"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
