All good things come to an end 😢... This will not come as a surprise to most people as I haven't played for a season now, but today with a heavy heart I've decided to officially retire from football... after a lot of thought I believe this is the best thing to do so I can draw a line under my 20 year career and move on to my next chapter in life. I would like to thank all the players and fans at all the clubs I played for @cardiffcityfc @avfcofficial @ipswichtown ❤️👍🏻 Also all the players,staff and fans of @fawales as a boy to play for my country was a dream and I'm very proud to have gone on to get 51caps and loved every second 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 But I must save a special thank you to all players,staff and incredible fans of @westham a team that will forever be in my heart... I spent 11 years at this wonderful football club and still think about it everyday, A club where I had the best time of my life for such a long time and gave my all everyday... without @westham and you amazing fans my life wouldn't be what it is today... I hope one day in the near future I can pull on the claret and blue one more time and thank you all properly ❤️⚒ Finally I say thank you to my amazing family without all of your love and support through the good time and bad nothing I achieved in the game would have been possible xx Love you all xx Thanks Ginge
