An example was he came deep 2nd half on Wed to collect a ball fed into his feet and give the defence a break, it bounced 10 yards off him and we lost possession straight away. I'd much rather have 2 "proper" strikers and 2 youngsters as back up next season. He's neither. I'd rather go for Thomas at Livingston. Is he out of contract in the summer? Link to comment
Stoneybloke Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 Hendry seems to be a solid enough trier, but I think that Glass will set his sights a bit higher to build a capable squad for next season. Link to comment

He had a great game v Celtic (especially first half), but was involved in both goals v Livi. He’s had a positive influence. If we recruit better, then that will be a positive Link to comment

Just my opinion, but a poor lazy signing if we went for him Link to comment

I think he's a better player than Hendry but we like what what we like. Link to comment
Sheepo Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 Thomas had a good game against us no doubt, but we fell into this trap signing Curtis Main after one good game against us. I would like to think we have evolved since then Link to comment

Sheepo Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 Hendry showed everyone Today he is nowhere near good enough for our level his touch is absolutely shocking for a Pro player Link to comment
Tord31 Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 I'd give Hendry 2/10 today which actually makes him man of the match Link to comment

Don’t blame him though. Blame the cunt who signed him I wasn’t fooled by a couple of decent goals. Touch an elephant & never a Dons player, or at least he shouldn’t be. Link to comment
aberdeen1970 Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 A lot of our support have forgotten what a good striker looks like. And who can blame them the shite we've had the last couple of seasons. Our best striker this season wasn't even a striker. None of the three on loan are good enough. The irony is that we probably couldn't afford two of them anyway. Link to comment

Aye. And their first choice striker is poor. And their second choice striker failed here a few years ago. I'm not sure who their third choice striker even is? Link to comment

Hendry hadn’t scored all season when we signed him And it’s about 2 in 12 or 13 since he signed. Bizarre signing. Had panic buy written all over it to beef up the squad Link to comment
