    That's awful. Why have Orient said medical grounds then?

    Orient have terminated his contract.

    http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/26724400

    Leyton Orient have confirmed that goalkeeper Ben Alnwick has left the club by mutual consent after his contract was cancelled.

    He signed from Charlton at the end of January but made only one appearance - at Rotherham on 1 February - before being unavailable for personal reasons.

    "I'm sorry for how things have worked out," said 27-year-old Alnwick.

    "I'd like to thank the club for their support throughout this time and wish them all the best for the future."

    Orient chief executive Matt Porter said: "Unfortunately the move did not work out in the way that either the player or the club would have wanted.

    "We have come to an agreement with Ben that it is best if we part ways."

    Alnwick began his career with Sunderland and had a spell on loan at Orient in 2011 when he was with Tottenham.

    He joined Barnsley after leaving Spurs in 2012 and signed for Charlton the following year.

    Maybe best to not speculate, wish the guy the best possible outcome and leave it at that.

    So many rumours. Just looked on a orient site and someone said it may be his son. Some say his wife. Some say he has a heart defect and is suffering depression. Whatever it is if any all are awful and wish him all the best in these awful times.

    Does that mean we can re-sign him? I ask because I rated him highly and would love to have him back on board.

    You'll see that there's quite a few heavily modded posts on this thread. Nothing personal, just trying to cut out anything that's speculative.

    I hope all is well with Ben ,I was just disappointed at his exit in my opinion he was our best keeper since Carson.

    A real shame, whatever has happened to make him feel he needs to interrupt a promising career.

    Best wishes to him.

    As we can only speculate on what's happened, we'll have to leave the detail of that to one side. Going by his performance for us, he was a superb backup to Hamer in goal. He gets my best wishes for the future and my hopes that his career gets back on track.
