Not seen such Bravery!
I reckon he knows he'd get first team football at Luton where he was playing every week.

Must have some one else lined up as cover
The level that the club attained last year is the highest for many years. If the youngsters do not progress to that level with the club then sadly they get left behind.
We are investing heavily in youth development and sadly not all of them will achieve the level we now find ourselves at. That is a fact of life. The fans want a successful side and if the youths coming through can't provide that then they move on - There will be some that will come through in the coming years I am sure of it.
Glen Rea may or may not be one of them. I am not so sure that he is on the way out just yet. Unless, he has had an offer elsewhere that he has decided to accept and that the club have accepted. I don't think he is one of the players that CH would be so ready to release due to not having progressed enough.
Your guess is exactly that. After his loan spells this season maybe he wants to play and if that means dropping down a division or 2 then fair play. I suspect Dallison is the better prospect

Finally - the Argus doing some actual reporting about Glen Rea - Glen Rea's future up in air at Brighton and Hove Albion despite deal extension
Albion apparently had a one-year option which they have exercised, but Rea is likely to leave for a small fee.

Good luck to the lad which ever way he goes look how well the lads did at Bournmouth how ever others have left and then not done so well. It's getting in the right team and a bit of luck football is a very hard business. You win some and lose some. Don't forget Ian Wright turned down by the Albion

Although they're not really the same kind of situation are they? Rea's progress as a youth player and then senior has been closely monitored in house for years whereas Wrighty was on trial as a teenager and didn't really shine until he was well into his 20's.

The signing of Ben Hall pretty much signalled he was done here.
Good luck to him. I assume we can't add a sell on clause as he's out of contract?

He's under 24, so it may be different.
