2003-2004


After a draw in the opening game of the season, Celtic notched up a record-setting 25-match winning run, now a British record in top-level football, giving Celtic a healthy lead in the title race. Celtic did not lose a game until after the club's 39th championship was delivered.

The 2003-2004 season also saw Celtic notch up four league wins over Rangers, and one in the Scottish Cup - the first time in either club's history when a five-match "whitewash" had been achieved.

Club hero Henrik Larsson played his final professional match for Celtic in the 2004 Scottish Cup Final victory over Dunfermline, scoring two goals, with Bulgarian Stilian Petrov's goal following Larsson's goals to overturn an early setback, and handing Celtic their second double under Martin O'Neill.

Larsson is now widely acknowledged as one of the club's greatest ever players, and ranks amongst the top three goalscorers in the club's history.
