| Nationality | English |
| Weight | 70 kg |

| Position | Forward |
Forrester signed for Northampton Town on a permanent basis during the 2000 close season and justified the large fee paid by Cobblers' manager Kevin Wilson by finishing the campaign as the club's leading scorer with 19 league and cup goals.
He is a lively striker with an eye for goal, equally effective with either foot and capable of holding the ball up well.
Forrester joined Hull City in January 2003 on a two-and-a-half year contract.
He subsequently moved on to Bristol Rovers in June 2004 on a two-year deal.
Forrester joined Lincoln City in July 2006 with a two-year contract.
He joined Notts County in July 2008 with a one-year contract.
