He'll always be a ledge for coming to us at the peak of his powers a few years ago from Man City, however last season he looked a little slow and unfocussed, and he must realise this too which I think was part of the reason he blew off on the fans, just frustrated.

I would offer him a coaching role as he has something to give in the dressing room rather than on the pitch these days.

I would hold him clear away any coaching. Believing he would push his own career, rather than truly inspire the atmosphere in the dressing room. His heart belongs another place. And is Bellamy and Ole a match?

Craig has been through alot lately, all pretty well documented. His parents are now living with him after 20 odd years of independence which knowing Craig was a decision not taken lightly. (I mean who would want to live with their parents at his age). For someone so independent and headstrong I know he feels a bit of a failure inviting his parents to live with him but it just goes to show how low he is at the moment. Yes his age has caught up with him, yes he should think about retiring, no he hasn't conducted himself with grace recently and yes he knows this but what you are seeing is a man in turmoil and now the season is over the fans should give him a break

Family reasons or whatever the reason, I appreciate him coming here to play for us.

Personally I think it's better if he calls it a day for us, give someone else the chance, he ain't up to it for me.

Become so greedy in the Prem, we don't need him, simple as that.

WIll always be remembered as a CCFC hero. Dropped a league (twice) to play in the Championship when he could have played a the top of the Premier League. His attitude and presence would have been no doubt a key factor in our promotion.

Scoring in your last home game of our only Premier League season against Chelsea. Go out on a high Craig.

Thanks= you Bellars! :ayatollah:

Sorry I hadn't seen you had posted this. I'm more of a reader of this message board than a contributor. I always look out for your posts and are easy to find as you have my favourite City player as your avatar. Thanks a lot for your post brother, it's like the opposite of some of the in-fighting that goes on too often on here sometimes. Top man. :ayatollah:
