Joe Hart to retire at the end of 2023-24 season

Gutted when we sold him but in hindsight it was the correct decision. I wish him well.

Same here.

Can't deny what he has contributed at City and he has for the most part fufilled his overall potential. It was the for the best to move him despite the earlier minor issues under Pep.

The perfect goal keeper would have Joe's hands, Eddie's feet and Walker's cock

Was a big part of our early success and growth so will always have my appreciation.
He can be proud of his career.

Scotland has differently rubbed off on our joe

Best wishes to Joe, he was an important part of our journey and just didn’t have the ability to play Pep’s way, but he has been a great goalkeeper for us.

That pretty much nails it for me. I wish him every success in whatever path his future takes, in or out of the game.

To this day we still have a pic on our fridge of him running round in delirium after Sergio’s goal.

One of the City greats

It’s nice to read such positive posts on here about Joe, rather than some of the shite that’s previously been posted by dicks about him “stinking the place out”. He was a magnificent keeper for us and at first I didn’t understand why Pep wanted him out (I get that now of course). But Joe never spat his dummy out and I’ve never heard him bad mouth our club. He is a City legend, one of the very best shot stoppers I’ve ever seen, and I’m an FOC. Hope he gets more tv appearances, although the fact he never bad mouths us won’t count in his favour

He probably wouldn’t have been Guardiola’s idea of a ‘keeper, even at his peak.

But it was only a matter of time whoever took over, unfortunately. He was on a downward spiral for whatever reason. Pellegrini had left him out for a spell already and Euro 2016 pretty much finished him off at the top level.

Shame it couldn’t have lasted a bit longer but nothing can take away those glory years that he contributed to as much as anyone.

He retired when he went Celtic
