James Forrest declared it “a pleasure” to represent Celtic through such a golden era in their history after he became their most decorated player of all time alongside Bobby Lennox.

The long-serving 33-year-old winger came off the bench to help the Hoops secure a 5-4 penalty shootout victory in Sunday’s dramatic Premier Sports Cup final triumph over Rangers, after an exhilarating 3-3 draw at Hampden.
