Good player. I thought he was quite skilful. His problem is being very light weight, makes him ineffective. Cowdenbeath fans will be able to tell you more about him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was at Easter Road when he was breaking through at Hibs and looked like he would be a considerable talent, before being absolutely clattered and put on the shelf by a Motherwell player. I think it was Shaun Hutchinson who done the damage. He never ever recovered mentally from that, IMO. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clayhole Blue Posted June 19, 2021 Share Posted June 19, 2021 They are listed as Fridays so obviously the SPFL were consulted along with the other clubs.Clubs were asked and got the chance to object. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loon From Outta Toon Posted June 20, 2021 Share Posted June 20, 2021 Just seen that Blair Henderson has left you lads & signed for Spartans!?

Yes you'd have thought so. For me, Blair Henderson to Spartans is an amazing transfer! Like you say, you'd have expected him to move upwards to a League one team. Reading between the lines, with his comments on leaving the club, he just wants to play every week. Gary Naismith has come in, and emptied out all our good players, and seems he won't guarantee Blair Henderson as much game time as Blair would like. So Hendo has dropped down to a team he can play every week. Fair play to him, I'm certain he'll fire in 20+ goals for Spartans next season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d have had him at Forfar in a heartbeat. spartans have done well getting a striker of that calibre 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a hell of a lot of gaps to fill and a fair few unknown commodities in that 'squad' so far. Really hope the management team and people running the club know what they are doing... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tenkay Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 Apart from big sexy Robbie, I don't feel much connection with that lot that's left there! It's going to feel strange next season, seeing almost 11 strangers wearing our Edinburgh City shirts. Between that, and the Friday night nonsense things are going to feel different from now on. Good luck to all the new guys coming in though. Hopefully we'll end up with a decent team. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomGuy. Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 Really interested to see how he gets on playing regular senior football. Hype around him seems crazy high from all the snippets you get from manager/coaches, but you never really know until they've played a senior season. Seems to be a number 10 type player from what little we've seen of him. Sure he played briefly v Brechin, then briefly against Celtic, last season, and both times it was in the middle of the park. Looked a bit "light" though, so might struggle early on physically. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tamthebam Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 Alex Ferguson & Co used to make a well known Capital confection so if he puts in a solid display the Evening News headline should be "Ferguson's Edinburgh Rock" (Passed the Ferguson factory in East Crosscauseway one hot day in the mid 80s. The door was open and the smell of boiling sugar wafted through the air. It was great) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
