Charlie Comyn-Platt (born October 2, 1985 in Withington) is an English professional footballer who plays as a defender. He currently plays for Weston-super-Mare.

Comyn-Platt attended Parrs Wood Technology College in East Didsbury along with fellow footballers Carlos Roca and Lewis Montrose. He started his career at Bolton Wanderers, and made his debut on 24 September 2003 as a late substitute in a 3-1 League Cup win over Walsall. Later in the 2003-04 season he started twice against Tranmere Rovers in the FA Cup. In total, Comyn-Platt appeared for the Wanderers 4 times.

In the 2004-05 season he was loaned to Wycombe Wanderers for one month, playing five times. He was released by Bolton at the end of the season and signed by Andy King for Swindon Town along with fellow Bolton youngster Ricky Shakes.

Comyn-Platt did not play much under King, but after his dismissal he found himself breaking into the first team under Iffy Onuora. Though Swindon were relegated at the end of the 2005-06 season, Comyn-Platt signed a new one-year contract. In 2006-07, Comyn-Platt was a consistent member of the first team under Dennis Wise's reign, but then found himself out of favour under Paul Sturrock. In total, Comyn-Platt appeared for the Robins 30 times. On November 23, 2006 he joined Grays Athletic on loan until January 2007, playing four times in the league for the club.

On January 31, 2007, Comyn-Platt joined Rochdale just a few minutes before the transfer window closed at midnight. He signed an 18 month contract, but didn't play at all in his first half-season, and his contract was terminated by mutual consent in July 2007. He did not appear in any games.

In November 2007 he signed for Conference South side Weston-super-Mare.^[1] For Weston, Comyn-Platt has found a place in the first team and figures to be a solid defender for the Seagulls for years to come.
