To-day's Birmingham Evening Mail suggests that he is contemplating retiring because of his persistent knee problem. It comments that he has never started back to back games for the club.

I sincerely hope he does retire and I think now is the right time to do it. Three reasons:
Reason 1. To protect his physical health. He has a long life ahead of him and playing on will almsot certainly cost him physically in the long term.
Reason 2. Presumably his insurance pay-out will be based on his final salary - therefore better to take it now than to drop down the leagues and take it later based on a lower salary.
Reason 3. To shut up the people on here that keep spouting on that he could do a good job for us. He couldn't!!
