ECHO Comment: "Fears of Witch-hunt Against Liverpool FC" part 3



Bar the paragraph in the programme, what has he done?

Tweeted to a couple of gay fans, after RS and England Games.

Wore the rainbow laces and armband, like hundreds of other footballers.

Absolutely no sincerity or principles whatsoever.

The first opportunity, and he's off to one of the most repressive and anti-gay countries in the world, to add a few more zillions to his Coutt's bank account.

In RS fashion he has been portrayed as some latter day Che Guevara, and the TRUTH will be handled in time honoured RS fashion.

Spot on.

He is obviously looked up to by a lot of fans, his words, his actions would have given some of the more marginalised supporters strength to be who they are. They might actually now be back in their shells or similar, and skeptical of other words and actions from footballers and other sportspeople.

Henderson won't give a crap though and that is the disgusting part. He has shown his true colours. I have seen a lot of comments on the Hitzlsperger tweet, saying things relating to what has he done for them but even one comment from somebody's hero can have a massive positive effect on a person.
 

Grim. I have never understood why he is portrayed as the spokesperson for the nhs, LGBTQ+, the premier league etc
My take on the NHS premier league captains thing is this.

People were getting furloughed as there wasn't work for huge sections of the population. Football came to a standstill so the public started to question why people earning millions aren't being furloughed when people on minimum and modest wages were. Henderson quickly nipped this in the bud by donating a tiny tiny fraction of his wages. It was self serving and self preservation.
 
The Athletic's Kopite chimp Simon Hughes struggling today to justify matters:

On Henderson...

"It is widely thought within Saudi that the club is poised for an imminent acquisition by the petrochemical giant SABIC (Saudi Arabia Basic Industry Corp). In any future argument about his decisions, perhaps Henderson will try to point towards SABIC creating employment in his native north east of England. In 2007, the company bought the Huntsman chemical factory in Teesside. Within its sphere of interest, SABIC has a reputation for competence and innovation."

On Gerrard....

"There has been less focus on him moving to Saudi Arabia than Henderson because he has never positioned himself as pillar of social values. He would not have taken on the role with Al Ettifaq without the money but the job gives him the chance to step away from the spotlight and reset his managerial philosophy."

How 'kin desperate is that to attempt a rehabilitation.

Utterly shameful.


Liverpool FC like Newcastle are at the heart of a sports washing operation. Just acknowledge it and stop trying to deflect. The whole world sees what's happening.
