I disagree @DubaiCAFC I don't think his been given a fair crack tbh under Jones or Appleton. Kid was fantastic under holden up until he had that injury. A loan away and a run of games I think we'd have got that Ness back. Feel it's one we will regret long term but it certainly looks like his off
There’s something there but it’s all a bit too easy for him here. He needs to be taken out of his comfort zone and a new environment will help him kick on.
Good luck to him, but like Albie he’s not what we need right now.
Surprised by this hardly featured .. nailed on being let go ? and can’t see the point of loaning him out for a season then releasing him .. because if we go up he no where near championship standard
I think he had too many players ahead of him in the current back three plus REG, potentially a new LCB (Potts?) and Zach Mitchell.
Although Ness has potential he needs regular game time and Zach is probably the better prospect being younger and with more ability on the ball (we really need to get him on a new deal with only a year to go).
I can see Ness following in the footsteps of the likes of Terrell Thomas and carving out a very decent career in L2/L1 and maybe even getting some Championship positions.
But I don't think that here and now he'd play enough to make progress at Charlton so it's a sensible move.

Really hope this move is what you wanted & that your career goes from strength to strength now.
I imagine he's not gone for anything, but I'd hope we've put something in there like a buy back or sell on fee
Wont be surprised if he career manages to go forward again, and hope we can benefit from it still
If he rediscovers his earlier form he'll be a real asset to County.
Signed on a 3 year contract + 1 year option.
Obviously highly rated by County.
