Although a regular in Sheffield United's successful reserve side in 2000-01 Ben had to wait until the last few matches of the season before he appeared in the first team. He impressed at right back in the game at Grimsby in April when his searching cross provided the opening for the winning goal and went on to play twice more. He is an adaptable defender with good positional sense.
