Some Celtic fans have been talking about Scott Sinclair after a post involving the Englishman caught their attention recently.
A Celtic-related page with the name ‘Celtic 1967.com’ recently posted about Sinclair. The post asked Celtic fans to share how they think Sinclair will be remembered as a player at Parkhead.
Many Celtic fans flocked to this post. Many hailed him, while some also talked about how the end of his tenure at Parkhead was indifferent.
An absolute legend that was unfairly treated. His goal scoring/assists was the best in the team in the seasons he played. Madness to drop/sell him. He won’t be replaced.

Was Sinclair unfairly treated at Parkhead?
Yes, it was unfair
I don't think so
Good player for us, tremendous in the invincible season. Lost form after that but still chipped in with 17-18 goals a season. Fondly remembered.

He did a good job. Fell away of late but never gave up. Good luck to him for the future.

Looked great first season and then faded badly. A very decent guy though.

Sinclair, who is valued at £2.16 million (Transfermarkt), had been at Celtic from the summer of 2016 until the winter of 2020. He left Celtic to join Preston North End in the English Championship in January (via Transfermarkt).
During his spell at Parkhead, Sinclair played 167 times in all competitions, scoring 62 goals and racking up as many as 36 assists as well for the Hoops (via Transfermarkt).
What do we think?
Sinclair’s numbers from his time at Celtic show why the club’s fans still have a liking for him. However, the 2019-20 season saw the 31-year-old make just two Premiership appearances which shows why some Celtic fans think that he did fade towards the end of his spell at the club.
