“Ben always gave his all for the badge, and we wish him and his family the best of luck for the future.”

Richards-Everton said: “I would like to say a massive thank you to the fans who continued to stick with us throughout two challenging seasons.

“I always put 100% effort in whilst wearing a Barnet shirt and I hope you saw that.

“I would also like to thank Dean Brennan and the Chairman for understanding my personal circumstances, which led to my decision to leave the Bees.

“I wish the club all the best in the new season and beyond.”

We would like to thank Ben for his hard work whilst at The Hive London and wish him every success for the future.
