Nottingham Forest have let out-of-favour defender Alan Rogers leave the club by mutual consent.

The 29-year-old left back moved to Hull City on loan in January after a lack of first team football at The City Ground.

He impressed boss Peter Taylor at The KC Stadium and had been close to securing a permanent deal at the end of last season.

But the manager's departure to Crystal Palace in mid-June scuppered talk of a deal, and the player was forced to return to Nottingham.

The former England Under-21 international has therefore been allowed to leave the League One outfit after two-and-a-half years under contract there.

News of ex-Forest coach Frank Barlow's move the other way as caretaker manager of The Tigers, though, may reignite the speculation.

Someone just purchased Jamie Vincent. I always thought he was a fairly decent left back, but being an ex-Palace player......he might not have endeared himself to the crowd.

Great player Rogers. Do we really need him in league one? I think Lynch/Mayo/Rents and possibly Dodd will suffice.

Rogers turned down a trial at stoke last season as he was 'too good' for he,. he would want to much many anyway and has a ego bigger then leon knight

And how, do you suppose, we will be able to afford him?

Dodd will be relaxing in his last year before retirment keeping the physio table warm.

Much better at centre-back, not good enough, never played professionally, not a left back ... in that order. I think a left-back is second only in the list of priorities to a centre-forward.

Amid the rancour of Gary Megson's departure from the City Ground he did give a couple of valedictory interviews which actually rang true.

Basically he reckoned the situation at Forest when he got there was absolutely dire, with a load of big-time charlies on monster wedge who didn't give a shit about the shirt.

I think he was talking about Rogers and his ilk. No, ta.

Not sure he would be value for money, and being Midlands based may not want to head south !
