Wes Fogden
The 27-year-old was a shock presence on Paul Cook’s list of nine players who were released from the Blues.
Despite the club having the option to extend his existing deal by another 12 months, the new boss declined.
It has left Fogden looking to play elsewhere following 28 matches and two goals during an injury-hampered spell.
The ex-Bournemouth man insists he learnt of his fate after instructing his agent to ring Cook on Saturday.
Regardless, he is adamant he bears no grudges.

I think its a shame about Foggy going, but to be honest even after he recovered from a very serious injury he did play several times, and I dont think he was anything near as effective as he was before his injury, but good luck to him and to Butler who I thought done really well this season.

I would have got rid of all of them. Perhaps they should have tried a bit harder and put a bit more into their performances this season (I accept Foggy didn't see much of it). The only decent player we had has now been sold. I think Cook would've got rid of more but he's now stuck with contracted players. Thought they were a disgrace this season. I wouldn't even thank them. For what? Our lowest League finish ever? Devera came out of it ok imo, he was the most improved player this season (he looked like he was trying) and he bothered to make his views known to Pompey fans in 'the Snooze'.
