I assumed that too but the club confirmed Williams and Harvey earlier today, while Adign and Reilly recently posted their news on their Instagram accounts.
Billy French signed a deal the same day as Ness, I see he has been injured for a lot of the last 12 months, but I haven’t heard him spoken of on here really.
Can someone a bit more knowledgeable than me, tell me about him and whether or not he is one we may see pushing this season or not as he doesn’t seem that young.

Believe French is a CB, he only got a 1 year deal while Ness and Deji both have contracts until 2024. Suggests he's behind them in the pecking order. Don't think he's been out on loan yet so that might be the next step for him in trying to win an extension.
As posted on the Pre-Season Friendlies thread, I see from the club's email this afternoon, reminding Charlton TV subscribers to re-register their account on the new website, that there is now a behind-closed-doors fixture against Welling on Friday night at 18:45. Like the Swansea game the next day, it's being streamed live on Charlton TV. Although the email doesn't say, the club's website now states that it's a game for our U23 side.
There was a Welling friendly booked a few weeks ago, with us due to play our U23s at Park View Road - that got cancelled though, along with all other Welling friendlies at PVR because of the work being done.
Guess this new one scheduled will just be at Sparrows Lane now.
Really impressed by Richard Chin yesterday. Looked a very tidy player. Don’t think I’ve seen him play before. Definitely looked better than an out of position Deji. Is his natural position at RB?

Richard emerged to my consciousness as a decent midfield player. I thought he was redeployed in the U23’s initially as a needs must right back. I thought his height might be a weakness there, but he has done well. It indicates to me that he is a footballer rather than a specialist. He was out with a broken leg I believe shortly before his reemergence last season. One to nurture, one to watch.

This will be a good test for the boys as Wealdstone are in the National League Premier.
An unreliable source told me the Wealdstone team turned up at Sutton in the afternoon.
