Jamie Pitman has told the Hereford Journal that his future does not lie at Hereford United.
"It's tough being released, especially as I live in the area.
"But that's football, these things happen and I have accepted the decision."
The Journal also reports that Rob Purdie has gone for a hernia operation.
Meanwhile the Dorest Press has a few comments from Garry Hill, the Weymouth manager, who confirmed the signing of Tony James from Hereford this morning.
"I've been a big admirer of Tony James for some time and I'm delighted that he's now a Weymouth player."
"Following the departure of our captain Matt Bound at the end of last season, we were left short in terms of numbers in defence and so getting Tony on board is a great bit of business.
"He has got a wealth of experience at Conference level having been Hereford's captain for many years and is someone who will provide us with many leadership qualities over the course of the season.
"I've watched him on quite a few occasions and in addition to his vast experience, Tony will bring a number of attributes to the club. He's mobile, quick, strong and can read the game well and at just 27 years of age he's also still got a lot of football left in him.
"Tony missed some of last season with a groin injury but he's over that now and after chatting with him I know he's really looking forward to the start of pre-season training in July."
