What happened to Keith Edwards?

[Jimmy23]

Where is he? Nowhere to be found on BBC. Did he get sacked? Did he leave? Why?

 

[Fatlad666]

I think he went lorry driving during covid, now a hospital porter maybe wrong

 

[Bell4]

Did he actually get married to the Rad Sheff lady - think she was called Hayley

 

[Nightsweats]

If he left Radio Sheffield I hope it was his decision. Loved listening to his insightfull and brutally honest commentaries. If Radio Sheffield got rid then they want boycotting especially as their football commentaries consist of bukkake sessions over the pigs.

I may be wrong but wasn't it the case that Lorry drivers were getting paid silly money post brexit when all the foreign drivers went home and keith decided to step away from comentry.

 

[Bl4desutd]

Saw him at the Northern General Hospital about 9 months ago. He was in a lot of pain and waiting to have a 2nd hip replacement

Pretty sure he was lorry driving when he finished with football. Nothing to do with brexit which was donkeys years later.

 

[sheff_blade90]

it was weird he was there & then after pandemic season. in our 1st season of the championship he wasn't there. & no explanation

 

[Flatcap]

Can confirm. He went back to driving lorries. I saw him doing so in Sheffield city centre.

 

[Moan? Nope-I saw Longhorn]

Isn’t the point that he previously ‘supplemented’ the driving with the commentary monies & now doesn’t need to do so as the driving is now (more) worthwhile financially?

 

[Stretch]

As already said, he became too busy with his driving work and could charge a premium for it, so bye bye RS.

 

[Russ]

He just drives about for an hour and half, doesn’t do much but when he gets to his destination he fooking delivers the goods.
As always.

 

[BigBed]

Changed his name by deed poll, now known as Nathan Hemmingway.

 

[Jolly Buffer]

Sir Keith!
Let's never forget his goal at Bolton away (lost 3-1) that got us promoted. Hull won at Burnley but couldn't overturn our goal difference. He got kicked in the head scoring it and was stretchered off.
Always a legend. Sir Keith.

 

[Maurice Maurice]

Pretty sad that players like that diving cunt Grealish will pack football in while he's in his 30's and retire knowing he's never done a days work in his life, while players who offered a lot more to the game like Edwards are driving lorries and hoping their pension is good enough to retire at 67.

 

[Dkc]

Just shows how much football has changed. Doubt Billy will be driving a wagon in his 60's.

 

[sitwell]

Radio co comms get paid a pittance , John Mcgovern was doing Forest games for less than a 100 quid about 5 years ago.

Edwards will have a huge pension, only thing it wont all go to him.

 

[Nightsweats]

Won't be doing much lorry driving when the CAZ money raising scam kicks in tomorrow.

Aye
I’ve posted this afore but always worth retelling:-

KE was putting in his usual ‘energy conserving’ performance which provoked a ‘Terrace expert’ to loudly opine:-

“Edwards you idle bastard, all tha does is score “

See also criticism of Billy in 2016-17.

Of course, King Keith also took corners, and a very good free kick!

I thought he was distinclty 'average' in his final months as a co-commentator. Didn't do his homework on the opposing teams. Said the same things every week. Always made sure to mention how many goals he had scored in his career. Carl Asaba is miles better.

 

[Jon Bon II]

Keith Edwards - The man who scored the goal that Pele couldn't.

Gone Villa, via Aldridge and Walsall before heading back to depot bi sound of it

 

[ChipButtyBlade]

Keith if you are on here lurking what are your thoughts on the Sheffield Clean Air Zone which i believe begins today 27th..............Lorry drivers gotta pay.

Yes and he appeared on a Yorkshire TV football special on the Friday night, the night before the Newport game, sporting the black eye he'd obtained at Bolton. George Kerr was also a guest and suggested that Sheff United went to church on Sunday morning and prayed (that results went our way). I can't imagine Iliman Ndiaye being a guest on a TV show the night before the Birmingham game!

Remember a few suggestions on Bladesmad calling for him to replace Blackwell!
