Gilligan, Samuel
Despite just one year at Celtic Park Sam Gilligan boasts a most impressive scoring record for the Bhoys.
The forward joined Celtic in September 1903 from his hometown club Dundee and he made his debut on September 26th in a 1-0 league victory at home to Hibernian.
Iniatially bought as cover for Alec Bennett, Sam found himself a regular starter after Alec was switched to inside-forward. He would notch 13 goals in 14 appearances but despite such a startling ratio his performances didn’t always impress and by 1904 was back to being cover for Jimmy Quinn and Bennett.
Sam moved to Bristol City where he was a huge fans favourite and then joined Liverpool in 1910.
