David Sinclair admits he's delighted to have notched up his first goal for Airdrieonians. 

​

The 23-year-old was on target in Saturday's 4-3 triumph over Stenhousemuir in the first round of the League Cup.

​

Sinclair also set up a goal for Mick O'Byrne and provided the free-kick from which Willie McLaren struck in the 2-1 win at home to Hamilton Accies in the first round of the Ramsdens Challenge Cup.

​

"I'm pleased with how I've done," the former Ayr United midfielder said. "It's always good to get on the scoresheet and help the team out.

​

"I got there [to Lewis Coult's cross] and the ball was bouncing about midriff high. I was in two minds about how to hit it so I went with the side of my foot and it's gone in.

​

"It's important to hit the target in a situation like that and I managed to get a lot of power behind it. Thankfully it's gone in.

​

"It was important we got the next goal given we were 2-0 down. Had they got the third goal, the game would have been dead.

​

"But in the second half, I thought we were comfortable. It's great to get through to the next round and get another win."
