Signed a 1 year deal

Second year if he plays 15 matches in 2016.

I think it was time to let him go with thanks for what he has done.

Disappointed is my opinion .....

Would only be less happy if we'd appointed him as equality and diversity officer.

A poor player and a despicable person.

Great coffee though.

We all have differing opinions on players abilities and even brands of coffee I might add, but the lad in the wheelchair at Catalans who Ben spent an hour chatting to and the disadvantaged kids he often makes feel special at various functions and camps would probably disagree with you.

He's also Connor Lynes favourite player. Not his role model too, I hope.

I wouldn't have kept him to be honest, he's a back up player now and nothing more. I would rather have Gudzek and Hallett in the back up full back/wing capacity, both have served their apprenticeship and performed well on loan/DR. Surely they deserve a chance? I think there's a very good chance they would be as good as BC, and 10 years younger with potential to improve. I want to see Dixon play week in week out at full back next year to see how he develops, with BC still around Chester will be likely to pick Ben at full back too often as he has this season. Fair enough give Dixon the occasional game off and let Gudzek get some game time.
