Just goes to show pro athletes should not get involved with causes like this.

Loads of players have gone to Saudi and Henderson takes as much flack as the rest of them put together.

If he keeps his mouth shut and doesn’t get involved with LBGT causes he would have been just another player getting a massive end of career payday.

Horrible take. Surely the conclusion should be that when athletes get involved in social causes, they shouldn't completely betray them. It's not that hard an ask.

It's the same thing as the person above said.
