Arsenal legend Ray Parlour left the Gunners in 2004 aged 31, signing for Middlesbrough in the Premier League.
Three years later he returned to Arsenal after being released by Boro midway through the 2006/07 season, keeping his fitness levels up while searching for a new club. A few weeks later Parlour signed for Hull City in the Championship, despite the Tigers struggling and facing relegation to the third tier.
