Let's make this birthday one to remember.

39 years old (Born on June 21, 1985)

Happy Birthday, Ben Herd! From your debut with Watford in 2003 to those memorable years at Shrewsbury Town (2005-2009), you've always defended goals like they're birthday cakes—no one gets a slice without permission. Your tackles were tougher than grandma's fruitcake and more reliable too!

Here's hoping this year brings you as much joy as the countless times fans cheered your name from the stands. May life continue giving you opportunities easier than marking strikers on match day—and may every candle blown out today represent another clean sheet of happiness ahead.

Enjoy celebrating—you've certainly earned it, legend!
