Ro Sham Bo Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 Hendry is miles off Brentford standard. I would be amazed if that was true. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Illgresi Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 Evening chaps, just wanted to hear your thoughts on Ross given the murmurs he may be coming back to the Dons? I was under the impression you guys thought he has been doing very well, so has been a bit disturbing to see him immediately dropped for the boy Kennedy. Is Kennedy better from what you've seen so far? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still claiming that? 6 hours ago, R.R.FC said: Probably the exact reason we charged it tbh. The board knew our second games against Dunfermline and Hearts would be picked for TV so attempted to maximise the streaming revenue when they could. 6 hours ago, Frank conner said: The BBC expect Hearts to win the league so i wouldnt be shocked to learn our home game on the last day of the season will be on tv. It might yet be of course but I wouldn't expect your match with Hearts to be on tv which could be a huge bonus to you having avoided the first one too. You've fallen really lucky with the Hearts games. We get only one visit and it's televised so no PPV at all from them. Hearts will have the league won long before the last game and they probably won't pick up the trophy at that game either. Assuming they've won it early enough they'll do that in their last home game. Unless there's nothing to play for elsewhere in the league I wouldn't think they'll pick up that one. A battle for a 4th playoff spot or to avoid relegation might be of more interest than Hearts getting their towels out for the beach. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whatever happened to the boy from The Rangers that went to Brentford? Can't remember his name but he was their standout prospect during 'the journey'. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He got injured quite allot, sure he didn't play in the first two seasons at all, which was a hell of a long time to be out for during an important stage in his development. He would occasionally show flashes of quality here and there, but by and large games could, and would pass him by and he didn't really do anything, he couldn't really hold down a starting position. Released on a free and joined Wigan. I'd love a Scottish player to come in for Brentford aswell, at the moment there's only one and it's Steven Pressleys son! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shame injuries seem to have limited his potential. He's now at Plymouth after not holding down a place at Wigan either. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a Raith fan who posts on here that also gets along to quite a few Brentford games, sure he might've had a season ticket. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael W Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 Aye, he's not Brentford standard. Play-off finalists last season and currently sitting 4th in the Championship. I think Henry's excellent but that's a bridge too far. Let's see where the rumours go then. What is more important is that we haven't sold him just because his boyhood club asked us to. Then again, I'm sure Hendry said in the past he didn't actually support a team growing up, so maybe it's a strategy we should keep employing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is he not a central midfielder? And also, not very good? Seems a strange signing, we’ll be light the next couple of games with Hendry suspended and Matthews possibly out but central midfield is probably the strongest area of the squad in terms of quality and depth. We have Hendry, Spencer, Matthews, Tait and Vaughan at a push who can play in there. I trust McGlynn and will give the guy a chance etc etc but just seems an odd one.

Thats what I was thinking as well we seem fine in there. Maybe looking to push Vaughan out wide left or possible Matthews is worse than feared? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heard Brentford being mentioned. I'm a Brentford season ticket holder and also a massive fan of Hendry but there's no chance this is happening. Brentford are a club looking for promotion to the Premier League and he's not at that level yet and also wouldn't suit the tempo they play. Bradford would seem like a more realistic possibility. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RR #1 Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 (edited) Can't believe what I'm reading here. Brentford too good for Hendry? People have way too high an opinion of the English Championship. I'm pretty sure if the likes of Jordan fucking Thompson can play every week at championship level Reagan would have no problems at all making the grade down there.
