Is it just the bottom leaves?
They can just get old and manky looking, just nip them off

I think it could be the cold weather we've had this year.  Some of mine are like that too.

I think Spana has it right - the pot looks very small, I think the plant is probably stressed.
There's more comfrey here than you can shake a stick at!

is it worth moving it into a larger pot or is it too late on now?

It wouldn't harm the plant to move it into a bigger pot, but I doubt it will make much difference at this stage.

Go on - move it into a 9-12" pot and see what happens.
I work very hard so don't expect me to think as well.
