Losy all respect for Newcastle and it's fans now you are football washing atrocities, Fully respect the few who talk against the owners and stopped going to the ground. Disgusting club.

[@fifaeger6289]

@@sjewitt22 doesn't make any sense. Fans are still lovely. Weird decision. You must hate every club in the prem as they're owned by rich owners

[@sjewitt22]

@@fifaeger6289 What a stupid strawman, I didn't say I hate them because they are rich, I hate them because of the atrocities, go and look up the war in Syria, or the fact they brutally murder journalists or the way they treat gay people and Women. Look I am guessing you are a teenager, but maybe go and have a little read.

What a Legend Ben Foster! Good luck in retirement and good luck in any future events that you will be involved in! A true role model to young people and goalkeepers the football industry will miss you. What a true legend!

I met Richard Lee in the early 2000s at a goalkeeping training camp. He was Watford number 1 at the time. We had a great chat whilst grabbing lunch in the canteen. Could you get him on as a guest for one of your podcasts? Would be great to hear about his life after playing football.

[@shaunharrison4457]

Newcastle requires someone who wants to be there 100%. You need to be all in. Credit to Ben for having the balls to say no and break away from the norm of contracts, medicals, signings, new club etc.

[@iamleebarry]

As a Newcastle fan I’m absolutely gutted. But good luck to you mate. You’re a top bloke

[@niksafc]

Happy retirement Ben! Top goalkeeper and person. You showed us the real ins and outs of being a PL player and stayed true throughout. Can’t wait for your next chapter🙌🏽

[@andrewlugg8887]

[@ted606]

Happy Retirement Ben, as a Newcastle fan, I wish you had come and had a final swan song at the Toon, maybe you can stick a retro Newcastle shirt on for “what you wearing” some time soon to make up for it haha. Best of luck in your retirement mate.

[@ZexaXIII]

I will miss watching you play. As a Manchester United fan you gave us good moments to remember and Cherish. I will miss those moments.

[@GalinhoFC]

You can just tell Ben is a top lad just by the way he speaks about family, football, his friends and everything. Happy Retirement mate, can't wait to see what's coming next👏🏼

[@harrichun]

As a Newcastle fan, I'm gutted you didn't decide to join us to see out your career, but I 100% understand and respect the decision.

[@Callum03]

Congrats Ben. I TRUELY believe it takes a strong individual to walk away from a sport that you clearly love. And to be fair I suppose you haven’t really walked away. The content is entertaining and consistent so you’ve already become a pro in your new career path. Have a good retirement bro 😎

[@michaelbeaumont145]

The Newcastle vlogs would’ve been insane but you’ve earned your retirement sir. Look forward to your future content and enjoy your retirement!

[@Supercar_TV]

You should go for the manager spot at Watford mate the way you control the back 4 and the rest of the 11 on the pitch at Watford you’d think you were already like a player/manager

[@JimmyH7]

Ben, top career, thanks for the memories at United especially winning the Carling Cup with Utd! Even better you’ve announced this in a Utd shirt! Good luck with the media work! 🇾🇪

[@wollyline1081]

Really wished Foster would've came to Atlanta. We would've loved you here plus we really needed you. Good Luck in retirement a real legend!

[@kevinelvin5326]

Well done Ben. Left RCW at a young age and had an amazing career playing for great clubs. Love your reason for saying no to Newcastle….. had the career most people dream off but not without sacrifice and hard work. Family time Now and running your own show and fully in control…… your also very good at this and clearly well respected. Hats off and looking forward to the Billy Hollywood podcast 😀

[@pauloneill914]

End of an era and is fantastic to see someone not just following money. Just demonstrates what a top guy Fozzy is. RESPECT

Total Respect For You Ben For Not Just Taking The Offer Just For The Pay Packet When Your Hearts Not Really In It Anymore. Love The Podcast And Love Your Honesty And Insight Into The Footballing World That We Don't Normally Get To See Or Hear.. Keep Up The Good Work 👏🏼

[@keeronsenior1929]

Would have been brilliant to have you up in newcastle but fair play, glad you made the decision that would make you happier. Its nice to hear that you have some respect for newcastle as a club.

I’m gutted about that personally but it’s well deserved. Happy retirement ❤

[@kevincaloum68]

I’m a West Brom fan AND an Atlanta United fan, absolute legend and role model for a fellow keeper (me), but sad he couldn’t finish out in Atlanta. Happy retirement, Ben Foster, thank you for all you’ve done, and if you ever want to come back, hopefully Carlos Bocanegra will have been fired by then and Atlanta will pay you what you deserve!!!

[@brianeibert1647]

What a class act, Fozzy! I will miss your matchday vlogs, but look forward to watching your other content. As a suggestion, to take or leave as you like, I think a series of keeper training videos would be world class. I know my daughter and I would watch them all day! Thank you for a great career and for being such a genuinely nice guy.

[@davewilson4485]

Gutted - would have loved you to play for the Toon! Completely understand your reasons though. Keep up the good work on the fozcast !

Cheers Ben, you are the best keeper that we had had down the albion in the last 40 years, good luck in all your future endeavours.

[@adriaanmuller4493]

Mate! I’m a 16 year old from South Africa and I just want to say, Ben, I’ve liked you all this time. The moment I saw you play for the first time on the tele, I became a Foster fan. Amd when you started the CyclingGK etc. I was buzzin’. So congrats mate, you’ve had a great career. Honestly, you’re top. And even though I’m not a keeper, you have been a huge inspiration.

[@mizzman601]

Baggies fan here. Honestly, so gutted Ben's not coming back but I cant blame him whatsoever. What a career. I remember having a Kick annual with a comic version of the Carling Cup final penalty save. Then watching him win the Carling Cup with Blues. THEN he was OUR player. Best keeper I've seen at the cub. Good Luck Fozzy. Good effort son

[@lewispatterson1136]

So refreshing listening to the thought process of any potential transfer. You would’ve loved it up here but a lot of respect for your final decision. Good luck in retirement and with your CGK project.

[@alastairalpaca5754]

What a legend, happy retirement. Gotta say lads I’d love a hospitality review when you go to these games. Trying local beers and food as well. Making it also like a helpful review. Congrats Ben, cheers
