Has all the hallmarks of an illness.   I wish him well and I wish him privacy.

Hope it's nothing serious.

I've always rated Herd and think he's been undervalued both on here and by successive managers.
Hope he's okay.

It sounds to me that someone in his immediate family has a life threatening illness. If so I hope they recover full health in time. But none of us know of course so lets just wish Chris Herd well and hope that whatever is affecting him is resolved successfully as soon as possible.

Ultimately it's none of my business but sometimes I wonder if giving a little more information may actually reduce the speculation.
Unless it he's done something stupid (i'm thinking drug related) then a simple 'family matter' or 'health issue' would greatly reduce the range of stuff which we can gossip about.  Mud sticks and all that and if it's not justified then that's not fair.

...Not that we'd believe what the club says anyway but I think they could try and help Herd a little more here.

Maybe people should just not speculate and leave him to his own privacy .

It was a fight with Kozak someone told me, I don't believe it.

If it's illness, then I hope he recovers soon.

I don't buy the fight theory, if it was disciplinary I imagine they'd say so.

This, and Kozak's got more important things on his mind than getting into scraps. I think wild consipiracy theories will be doing the rounds unfortunately.

Shame, I like him as a footballer. Always thought that if we could give him a sustained  run in the centre of MF he could build up a bit of form and cement a place. Has never really happened for him here for whatever reason.

From what I have been told it's not down to anything entirely specific. He's just got something not entirely right in his head. Hope he gets the help he needs.
