A member of the England Under-18 set-up, Ben Clark made his senior debut for Sunderland in the 2-1 Worthington Cup win at Luton in September 2000 and certainly did not look out of his depth.
A solid defender who is confident on the ball, Ben joined Hartlepool United in October 2004 with a contract to June 2007.
