# Celtic: Fans can’t believe Scott Sinclair was again left out of the squad against St Mirren

**Scott Sinclair has become a fan favourite since moving to Celtic Park in 2016, and that’s no surprise considering that fact he’s helped the Hoops [to three Scottish Cups, three Scottish League Cups and three Scottish Premiership titles](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/scott-sinclair/erfolge/spieler/31552).**

However, since Brendan Rodgers’ departure to join Leicester, he’s been left out in the cold, having made just [two substitute appearances in Celtic’s 11 league games](https://www.whoscored.com/Players/12779/Show/Scott-Sinclair) so far in this campaign. Despite that, he’s still managed to bag a goal in the Scottish League Cup after coming on as a sub, along with one in [the Champions League qualifiers](https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/live/football/48738504).

Many Hoops fans seem frustrated that he’s not been given much of a chance so far this term, and they expressed that when Celtic’s Twitter account posted the starting 11 for Wednesday night’s game against St Mirren. They eventually won 2-0, but it was clear before the match that fans weren’t happy with Sinclair’s omission.

> The continuous omission off [@Scotty\_Sinclair](https://twitter.com/Scotty_Sinclair?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw) from the squad is nothing short of disgraceful. Love Lenny but cant work his logic out behind this horrendous decision making

> [@Scotty\_Sinclair](https://twitter.com/Scotty_Sinclair?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw) should be in the line up tonight or at very least on the bench. The man is quality.
