Retro Celtic Away Shirt 1996/97
In 1996/97, Celtic, managed by Tommy Burns, played attractive football but ultimately fell short in the title race. Despite boasting attacking talents like Paolo Di Canio, Jorge Cadete, and Pierre van Hooijdonk, the team lacked the defensive consistency to match Rangers, who clinched their ninth successive league crown. Celtic finished second, five points behind, though their brand of attacking play won plaudits. Cup competitions brought no silverware, with early exits deepening frustration. Internal tensions and financial pressures grew, and Burns departed at the season’s end. The campaign is remembered as one of “what ifs,” with flair overshadowed by missed opportunities.
