Confirming the news to the Official Club Website, Town boss Joe Royle said: "Chris Hogg is leaving us and we wish him well. He came to the Club with a big reputation but has not been able to go that extra yard and get into the first-team."
Hogg has signed a two and a half year deal at Easter Road and joins former blues Antonio Murray, Sam Morrow and Mark Venus on the playing staff at the Scottish Premier League club.
