Two former Clarets leave their clubs

Frank Sinclair - has left Lincoln

Frank, who is now aged 37, was a summer 2008 signing for Peter Jackson at Lincoln but moved on loan to Wycombe on the loan deadline when he was one appearance short of being entitled to another year with Lincoln.

That was the reason for his move and he played regularly in the Wycombe side that finally clinched promotion last Saturday despite losing the last game of the season at home to Notts County. On his return to Lincoln this week he was, as expected, released.

Ricketts returned to Walsall last season, signed by Jimmy Mullen just after the former Burnley boss had been given the job on a permanent basis. But after just one year he has been deemed surplus to requirements at the end of his contract and is yet again on the lookout for another club.
