The Legacy

CR Smith sponsored this Celtic FC away kit worn throughout the 1996-1997 Scottish Premier Division campaign. Under manager Tommy Burns, the side finished as runners-up to Rangers. This squad relied on the attacking output of Paolo Di Canio, Jorge Cadete, and Pierre van Hooijdonk. Despite scoring prolifically, they failed to stop their rivals from winning the league title. The season remains noted for the high-scoring partnership between these three foreign recruits who frequently dominated domestic defences before moving on to other clubs.

Key Moment

Rangers clinched a ninth successive league title in 1996-97, with Celtic finishing as runners-up.
