Veteran striker Andrew Cole has hinted that he could leave Nottingham Forest after growing frustrated at his lack of first-team opportunities so far this season.

The 36-year-old former England international has started only one Championship game for Colin Calderwood's struggling side and was on the substitute's bench for Saturday's goalless draw with Charlton Athletic.

"I didn't come here to sit and watch," Cole told the Nottingham Evening Post. "If I'm not going to start there's no point me being here.

"I've never picked up money for nothing in my career and I'm not going to start now."
