That would be terribly sad if he had to retire due to injury.

There have been persistent rumours that he did not have long left in the game for quite a while now.

Its clear he's not up to playing 50+ games a season, not even half that by the looks of things.

A shame if true. Seems like a nice fella, even if he does play for Spurs. Fantastic tackler and quality player all-round.

this aint far off being correct.

a mate of mine, whos from london, told me about 6 weeks ago that kings career is over and his injury is alot more serious that public knowledge....its an injury that apparantly will haunt him for the rest of his life.....

his source, cant really remember, but it was somebody close to white hart line.....

well it's a damn shame if that's the case, but you have to say it wouldn't be unexpected at this stage.

Feel sad for him, but as a player he is overrated. Does anyone remember him 4 years ago on that Badiel and Skinner show? He seemed like a bit of a twat.
