No amount of hollow explanations can ever see this twat regaining any respect from Liverpool supporters or the general population as a whole.
Attempting to give him (or any of the other money hungry cunts) any understanding or compassion would be a bit like saying Lucy Letby was a fine nurse before she started murdering babies.
And this is exactly I would accept nothing for Salah.
He stays our season has started well and genuinely could be a big one.
There are lots of buildings in Liverpool that were built on the proceeds of slavery. You donāt see manacles outside although you do now, at least, see a plaque acknowledging the fact.
There is also an eye opening museum I recommend on the dock.
I donāt think I have ever seen a former player piss away his legacy in such fashion before. And the worst part is that he was probably always like this; he did everything to warm himself to the club and fans for his own personal advancement when he was at Liverpool but he never really bought in on the clubās core values. Which isnāt a requisite or anything like that but at least he wouldnāt look like a massive hypocrital sellout.
Donāt see him getting a testimonial any time soon.
Reading the interview quoted above, he comes across as being not very bright. I think the stuff he did at the club was probably done with sincerity.
What a hero. Modern day Martin Luther King
What he forgot to say was it actually meant anything beyond being a nice colour.
I canāt believe that. Him being stupid seems like a cheap way to explain his actions. He spent 12 years at the club, it would have been made obvious a long time ago if he wasnāt the sharpest tool in the shed. Instead he was a model captain for most of that time, especially off the pitch.
Maybe that was the work of his advisors, but if thatās the case they are badly letting him down now. I still think that heās revealed his true colours after the Saudi offered him more money than he could ever imagine.
Unfortunately too many people today are happy to have people believe it was someone elseās fault.
People are twats - The systems fault.
People are lazy - The organisations fault.
People are violent in shops - Corporate profiteering at fault.
People are criminals - Societyās fault.
Zero accountability required these days, always a handy get out
I donāt mind anyone being a greedy cunt and chasing life changing money.
I dont really give a fuck about the higher morals of footballers. Ultimately it gives them a good feeling and matters little.
I just donāt like the dishonesty of taking a so called stance and then pissing all over it. Hendo could have turned the Saudi offer down. He could have said, your record on gay men is atrocious, so fuck you and your money.
Instead he hid his laces and armband and spat in the eye of those he said he supported.
I hate the fact we are disowning a legend.
But its on him.
And his interview, well intended or not just compounds the situation.
I get the timing of the interview, as it coincides with coming to play for England. But it is ill advised.
His words were not well chosen, neither was there an apology or any conciliation.
He would have been a lot better advised to keep his head down, and allow more time to elapse.
We are at the point where there is probably nothing he can say to smooth this over. Everyone knows the score. He took the money to move to Saudi Arabia. We might not like it, but that is his right to do as he chooses. The sting in the tail is that he was a vocal LGBT supporter, and he has let down that community, and by extension, all of us, because we want people to be upstanding and genuine, and not able to have morals for hire to suit a systematic sports washing enterprise.
Anyway, Iāve probably commented on Henderson more than I care to at this point.
Time to move on. Weāve got a new team emerging, and it is a great time to be a red. The focus is now on new heroes, and the new deeds they will surely accomplish. Yesterdayās men are, well, yesterday.
Maybe drop the āheroesā bit. Theyāre footballers, not heroes. Royally paid and most of them with little morals or loyalty when it comes to their business.
There are quite a lot of my personal friends whoāve appreciated Henderson when he was a LGBTQ supporter even if one of them was a man utd fan. The stand that he had taken etc whenā¦
Itās like something as a dagger in the back
Itās hard enough trying to fit inā¦and itās hard enough trying to find a community. For a lot of LGBTQ community , Football essentially is a way to fit in. I might be insensitive in the sense that Iām not one. But the inclusiveness which has been fostered , Hendo did a whole lot of backstabbing on that,
Just to come back on a couple of the points people have made:
I think itās always been widely reported that heās not the brightest in a traditional sense. Thatās not something thatās brand new information today to try and excuse his interview/behaviour. Fans of other clubs are always saying it and Iāve chatted to a couple of lads whoāve interviewed him in the past who have said itās really hard work.
he does as much of an apology as you can reasonably expect from someone who doesnāt accept theyāve done something wrong. He says it makes him sad that people feel heās let them down and heās sorry he made them feel like that, before reiterating it does matter to him. (As well as the non apology āIām sorry if they feel like that, which is obviously worthless).
A think heās a big hypocrite and he just has to accept heās taken a hammer to his reputation.
What fascinates me most though is wondering what the ābestā answers he could have given were. Like by definition there is a ābestā answer to all the questions and for the life of me I canāt figure it out.
When athletes become icons of public policy, their reputations seem always to suffer over time. They really should refrain. And leagues shouldnāt make them dancing marionettes of political fashion.
It was me that commented on him not being bright. Itās not something I have seen or heard mentioned about him before. It wasnāt an attempt to excuse his choices, theyāre his to make. It was merely a reaction to what he has said.
I think in our bubble, because he did the role of captain so well we donāt notice, but outside of our Liverpool bubble everyone thinks heās thick.
When I said it wasnāt an excuse I didnāt mean to imply you might have thought it was, just didnāt want people to think I was saying it was cos thatās not how I feel. Haha. 
This comment from the piece is interesting

Why is it interesting? Because it is the exact same circumstance as when Fulham floated the idea of us selling them Hendo to grease the wheels of the Dempsey deal. The reaction from the club then as it was this summer was not to say no. It was to be honest about his prospects and let him have his say. Back then he decided to stay and prove himself to Rodgers. Back then he likely was being offered a pay cut though.
