History of Celtic F.C. (1887–1994) As the season progressed, Frank McAvennie arrived from West Ham and young forward Joe Miller – a very promising prospect – was signed from Aberdeen. This new-look Celtic side, captained by Roy Aitken, quickly gelled and embarked on a 31-game unbeaten run, culminating in a historic League Championship and Scottish Cup double win in the club's centenary season. Walker and McAvennie forged a successful partnership up front whilst Paul McStay enjoyed his finest season, winning both the SPFA and Scottish Football Writers player of the year awards. Celtic clinched the league title on 23 April 1988 with a 3–0 win
