BLACKBURN Rovers have announced that operations director Paul Agnew has left the club.

In a very brief statement, Rovers said: "The club would like to announce that Paul Agnew is no longer employed by Blackburn Rovers Football & Athletic Plc and would like to thank Mr Agnew for his service as operations director over the last 11 months."

The move came just a week after Agnew was confirmed as the new chairman of the Blackburn Rovers Community Trust.
