This article is going over the top. Granted he is no longer a Liverpool player but he was a well loved and respected captain he led Liverpool to several trophies. He never got to say goodbye to the fans at Anfield because he left mid transfer window. Brentford fans should have shown some understanding for this and if it was reversed and he had returned to Brentford after leaving for Liverpool and hadn’t gotten to say goodbye to the fans then Liverpool fans would acknowledge he would want to say goodbye and he deserved to say goodbye. If you get upset over a player being clapped off a pitch and clapping his goodbye to his former team’s fans then you need to take that stick out of you backside and stop being so overly sensitive
Too many sensitive souls supporting Brentford Dawn,after 60 years supporting the Bees through up but mostly down, personally i could not give a toss.
He could’ve very easily done his goodbyes at the end of the match and not spent ages milking it and hugging the opposition when there was still a game to be won. Take your rose-tinted specs off and look at it from our perspective.
What a lot of hot air. Henderson has been so good for Brentford why the need for over reaction to a very trivial incident.
You clearly haven’t been paying attention. He’s been far from “so good”. So it’s not an overreaction. Plenty of players don’t get the send off they or the fans believe they deserve when they leave clubs. Henderson got it wrong on the day. He milked it when his job (yeah, what he’s paid for by Brentford) was something else entirely.
Paid for under Benhams (where would we be without him?) tenure Tom ,if he Giles are ok with him Tom thats fine by me.
“I’m just happy to be here” basically… How utterly predictable and dismal.
Our past is ancient history. We should never forget where we were (yes, I put money in buckets too) but just being grateful to have a seat at the top table is a worrying narrative. Aspiration is not a dirty word. We are one of the most progressive clubs in world football and, as such, should always be looking to improve and strive for more. Otherwise, what’s the point? Might as well send us back down the leagues now if that’s how people think. Most fans were, and still are, bitterly disappointed how we ended the season. Europe was in our hands and, quite frankly, we bottled it. Just clapping it off and saying, “ho hum’ is unacceptable.
I will never understand how some people can’t see this.
Ancient Happy to be here and a Realist Tom, after the preseason we had were we where every ones favourite to get relegated(probably you included) ,finishing ninth missing out on Europe on goal diff is an impressive season. In Benham and Giles we trust onward and upwards Bees.
