Combative Midfielder Sinclair Joins City

After taking goalkeeper Jack Stevens on loan until January from SkyBet League One neighbours Oxford United, Oxford City have announced the coup signing of Rob Sinclair from League Two side Forest Green Rovers.

Forest Green confirmed that the combative midfielder had left the New Lawn by mutual consent earlier today.

The Bedford-born player made over 100 appearances for the club after joining from Salisbury City in 2014, scoring 3 goals.

Injury ruled him out of the chance to play in the May 2016 National League Promotion Final against Grimsby Town. However, he had played a crucial role in helping the team reach the showpiece event.

His playing days began at Luton Town. As a teenager the Hatters sent him out on loan to Salisbury where he gained early experience of life in the fifth tier.

Let go by Luton without making a first-team appearance, he moved to the Whites permanently, and his impressive form earned him a move into the Football League with Stevenage.

He spent three seasons at Stevenage, also being loaned out to Aldershot Town, before re-joining Salisbury for their final season before the club was forced into liquidation.
