Scott Sinclair sends emotional message to ex-Celtic teammate Scott Brown

Preston ace Scott Sinclair has blown hot and cold at North End, but he’s certainly still a hero at Celtic.

The winger had a mixed season; his goal at Bournemouth was an unbelievable strike, but he would go through stretches of barely being involved.

Sinclair did finish the campaign as Preston’s top goalscorer, but some may feel that we still haven’t seen the best of him.

Ideally, North End will want Sinclair to be like he was at Celtic; in his three full seasons at Celtic, he scored at least 17 goals in each.

Sinclair’s hero status at Celtic will probably never disappear after winning three titles in a row, and he has taken the time to comment on a Parkhead exit.

Scott Brown – who could have been a Preston player himself many, many years ago if Craig Brown had got his way – ended his Celtic career this weekend as he prepares to join Aberdeen.

Brown has been an inspirational captain at Celtic for 14 years, and leaves the club having won 10 league titles with the club, three of which came alongside Sinclair.

Sinclair has taken to social media to post a heartfelt message, admitting it was a pleasure to play alongside Brown at Celtic, leading to Bhoys fans admitting they miss him even if his North End career has been a little mixed to date.
