Chris Herd

[Dante Lavelli]

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.

Sounds like the club are doing the right thing then and a more progressive approach than the Gregory days.

Some talk he went walkabout / AWOL in Portugal last week ?? May just be BS though

I have heard the same story

So have I now.

[Olneythelonely]

The Portugal thing is true. He's been drinking heavily and has some demons too apparently. I wish him all the best and hope he gets better soon.

[manic-road]

All the best Chrissy Herd whatever your problems are.

[SoccerHQ]

That Bent thing was doing the rounds last season.

Herd might be limited but he's no worse than a few of our other midfield options and he always gives his best when he plays for us so I wish him all the best and a speedy recovery from whatever horrible illness he probably has.

[supertom]

On another matter, is he out of contract this season?

[PeterWithesShin]

2015 I think. I'm sure he signed a new one when McLeish was in charge.

[Flamingo Lane]

Can't believe folk have nothing better to do than speculate on what may or may not be this person's issue(s).  Pathetic.

[Rudy Can't Fail]

I like Herd, always gives his best. Wishing all the best whatever problems he may have.

[john2710]

Whatever the reason for his absence, let the man be whilst he sorts himself out.

Speculation & out right bullshit should be left to the gutter press.

[themossman]

Yes. I hate threads like this.

[Phil from the upper holte]

Bent got married in the summer so I doubt there is any truth in it

[SW9-VILLA]

Hope whatever it is it get sorted soon and isn't too serious.

Speculation not helpful at all.

Any news on Chris Herd? - it's been well over 6 weeks since the club announced he wouldn't be available for a while. We could do with Chris back to help out in this relegation scrap.
