    thoughts please from the youth team watchers.

    am always disappointed when we let home grown lads go (especially considering we seem to have a penchant for resiging them at the moment!)

    will be listening avidly to tomorrows game. i think we are going destroy this mob.

    It's been on the cards for a while now. Charlton have done everything possible to help him get his career back on track after his horrendous ankle injury, but he may now have to look for a career outside football. He was an outstanding prospect and good luck to him.

    Great shame this.

    Only saw him play twice and only for parts of games - very impressed.

    Hope he picks something up in the not too distant future.

    ability wise he needs to be a wing back but height wise he needs to be a winger (too small for wing back) but I'm not sure he has the pace to be an out and out winger :(

    Not at all surprised really - Lets hope he impressed whilst at Welling to get himself a Contract there

    Wonder if it was a shrewed move by the club to help him out, at least getting released now Ben isnt competing against every other youngster who gets released at the end of the season for a place at a club.

    I think he was only on a short contract until January.
