Rumour: According to various media sources- Frank Sinclair is said to be in talks with Nottingham Forest over a possible move to The City Ground. Apparently the player, who was released by Leicester City at the end of last season due to his high wages, would prefer to stay in the Midlands. Frank is currently training with Brentford, whom he sees as his last resort. Rumour Rating: 4/10 - The very fact that the rumour originates from the News Of The World means that it loses credibility. The News Of The World are more concerned about the amount of readers they get and publicity; not covering news that they know to be true. What The Fans Think: "I very much doubt that this is true, but if it does turn out to be- then Sinclair will be a decent addition to the Forest squad, and a somebody we can rely on for back up or who our youngsters can turn to for advice." Forest Faithful - Forest Fan. "We don't need Frank Sinclair, we need a center midfielder. Frank would be a pointless signing who would be a waste of money. We need to cover the areas we are lacking in and we don't need another Leicester reject in our side!" Smithy - Forest Fan. "I'd have him back. We let him go because of his high wage demands, but he was one of our best defenders and probably would be one of the best defenders in The Championship! He would go alongside Dawson and would bring experience to your side- which is something you lack." 'Leicester' - Leicester City Fan.
