    Don’t think anyone is suggesting it’s Hendry’s fault?

    Having seen him at Dundee he has some things about him but anyone that thinks he’s Celtic class is blind, stubborn or deluded. It is painful watching him flounder so badly.

    I understand that but if he's trying his best & it's not good enough, then it's not his fault that he's picked & playing. It might be he needs more protection / nurturing if there is any improvement to be gained.

    He's being criticised for trying his best though. Although Minty says anyone could have done more to stop the goal. ??

    At 23 he’s young for a CB, but Jozo is only a year older... at least with Jozo we’ve seen he has it and has been excellent at times. (Tbh it’s hard to know what’s wrong with him) Hendry shouldn’t be anywhere near us and BR needs to come to terms with that..

    He can’t show his best because his confidence is completely shot.

    He’s a bag of nerves because he’s so far out of his depth.

    Aye, it does. It makes me uncomfortable tbh because it’s clear he is out of his depth at the moment, so it’s Brendan and the board. I can understand being frustrated but bile and abuse, nah, a don’t like it.

    Similar to the abuse Paul Telfer got just because WGS liked him and he wasn’t Didier Agathe.

    I keep banging the same drum about Jack but I refuse to criticise a guy who's trying his * best.

    Constructive criticism is ok, it’s beeded infact, it’s how people improve.

    But there’s a difference between that and the * I’m talking about.

    Aye he definitely has a target on his back from the support right now, but the flip side of that is I can totally get why

    Yeah but like you say, people screaming st him for being "*" helps nobody. The boy never hides, he pulls the hoops on and tries his best. That's more than we can say for a certain other defender .

    Certain other two defenders mate, nobody can tell me that Jozo is trying just now.

    Dunno what Jozo's game is lately. My phone auto corrected his name to Bozo yesterday and I thought that was spot on.

    I feel so sorry for this boy. I think that things would be different for him if there were a couple more experienced defenders around him. As it is KT has been carrying the whole back line. You don't really get much time to learn on the job at Celtic....you either hit the ground running or you sink into obscurity. Some players when they start like that take loads of abuse and seem to get stronger for it. They toughen up. Others it can crush their confidence. I hope Jack isn't the latter. I want to see him do well as he has something about him.
