James Forrest’s 23 major honours make him more decorated than most clubs in the country. Man of the moment James Forrest’s 23 major honours make him one of the most decorated players in Celtic history.
His tally is even more eye watering when you compare it to other so called ‘big sides’ in this country.
Glasgow Rangers 1873-2012 (god rest their souls) won a mere 17 major honours this century before being claimed by The Grim Reaper.
The Tribute Act who took their place and continue to shamelessly pretend to be the same club have only won two major honours in their 11 year history, despite spending in excess of a hundred million quid.
That’s a total of 19 trophies between two basket case football clubs. James has four more in his cabinet than the two of them combined this century. Astonishing figures.
If you even throw in the major honours won by St Johnstone, (3) the second most successful side in the top Flight this past decade, it’s still one short of Jamesy’s haul. That is an incredible stat, and one that shows how impressive and successful not just James has been, but also the football club itself.
We are undoubtedly the most successful side in the country. No one comes close. We welcome the chase.
