Lee Hendrie On The Magic Sponge Podcast.
« on: February 20, 2016, 02:41:34 AM »
Apologies if there's a dedicated Lee Hendrie thread that this belongs in but I searched and couldn't find anything.

Anyway, I listened to Jimmy Bullard's podcast The Magic Sponge a few days ago and Lee Hendrie was the guest. As well as saying "to be fair" a few hundred times he had a couple of interesting/funny/eyebrow-raising stories to share. The ones about Stefan Postma had completely passed me by at the time and I can't say I'm too upset at not having heard them until now. What surprised me the most was how disrespectful he was when speaking about Sir Graham Taylor. The story of him Jlloyd Samuel, Gareth Barry, Peter Crouch and a few others playing up in a hotel just after SGT had taken over for the second time and how it led to Hendrie leaving the club was annoying to hear.

Am I the only one who had never heard some of these stories?

Postma like to be pegged, allegedly. There was a video of it. Allegedly.

Aye, I remember something about Postma, his missus playing Postma/ns knock and pushing a special delivery up his box?
Sorry, that's about as polite as I can be.........

PS. Just realised that could be half decent lyrics to a song. Where's me Telecaster?

Of course, you're right. I meant to put that he never played under SGT again.

The short version of the story was that Hendrie, Barry, Samuel, Crouch and one of Crouch's sidekicks were on the piss the day after a game at QPR (citation needed.) in a hotel restaurant playing some game called spoof and the loser had to walk around on all fours like a dog and piss on a random diner's table leg. Hendrie lost and ended up at the table of a Sun reporter who immediately rang Sir Graham. Hendrie called Taylor a "fucking turnip" on the show. If not approving of that sort of exploit makes you a turnip then I suppose most people would be turnips.

And apparently Postma was a big fan of the video he starrred in.

As far as I know we never played QPR under SGTII. And Hendrie played loads while he was manager.

I gave up reading the rest after seeing Bullards name.  Now touting himself round as the perveyor of all things 'top lad banter'.  Him and the orange pixie are well suited.

Graham Taylor - widely respected throughout football, not least for his dignified behaviour post-England.

Lee Hendrie - "Isn't he that Villa player who used to get into trouble a lot? Didn't he try to kill himself when he was made bankrupt?"

If that story isn't anywhere between embellishment and a complete fabrication then what an utterly arseholish thing to do.

It's disgusting. Even if it is made up.

I despair. He's 38 and apart from the fact you'd expect a man of that age to think twice about telling that story, the very least you'd hope is he'd realise what a twat he was when younger. Still looks like a 10 year old and appears to have the mental age as well

The podcast is typical "lad" rubbish but the guests and Bullard often fall into that playground mentality of having to outdo one another with increasingly outrageous stories and it can be interesting.

Lee Hendrie amazed me by managing to seem like a bigger bell-end than I thought he was.

I call bullshit as having double checked, we never played QPR while SGTII was manager and in 02/03 (the full season under SGTII) Hendrie played in 27 league games.
