He was a bang average footballer who obviously wants to keep his career going in the media.
He then sees a no mark footballers like Steven Warnock and Neil Mellor get jobs in the media and thinks he can emulate them.
The difference is, both of those talentless pricks played for Liverpool which automatically qualifies them for a role in the media.
Kitson doesn’t have that luxury. He’s also an ugly ginger prick to boot, so he can’t even go down the Redknapp route of being pleasing on the eye for the ladies.
Therefore, he needs to make himself likeable to the hordes of Rag and Dipper imbeciles who spend all day listening to talk sport and voting on every possible BBC/SkySport poll.
What better way to do that than sticking to boot to City.
