The only legacy he will now leave is one of hypocrisy.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Is it hypocrisy if he invests all the Saudi money into LGBT? He obviously won't, but let's say he did.

On reddit his legacy is tarnished. In the city and in real life he is still a legend who lead us to the title.

How is this downvoted haha

This fucking website man

Give it 5 years mate and he’s a Liverpool legend still and everyone has forgotten this,

I mean if you spoke to about 90% of Liverpool fans IRL I don’t think they give a shit either

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

I imagine that’s because those 90% of fans never gave a shit about lgbt people anyways

but people on the internet told me what to think.

What about the fans at Wembley booing Henderson?

Reddit isn’t reflective of real life

I mean neither are the few people you’ll talk to irl, your experience will likely be different to mine.

I have a fairly significant amount of "real" friends who share the opinion on Henderson that is seen on Reddit.

Your real life isn't everyone's real life.

And how about the England fans at Wembley booing Henderson, they not real?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

You might not care, but many won't forget what he did.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

He captained Liverpool to the first title in 30 yrs and played for more than 10 yrs. In terms of playing career he is a legend

And that is the worst part.
