Celtic's 1967 quadruple winning season came at a time when the Hoops were unstoppable in Scotland.

Nine consecutive league trophies may not sound like much from a side in Scotland but their European excursions were significantly more impressive.

The European Cup win of 1967 against Inter Milan was perhaps the greatest night in the clubs history.

Under Jock Stein they also reached the final in 1970 as well as losing in both the 1972 and 1974 semi-finals.

Manager: Jock Stein

Best XI: Simpson; Craig, Gemmell, McNeill, Clark; Murdoch, Auld; Johnstone, Lennox, Wallace, Chalmers
