Lee Hendrie, Jigsaw Man

If anybody knows what he plans to wear in the London marathon I will look out for him, live I mean, not on television.

Its good that his life is back on the right track and that he seems to have a new prospective.  Good luck to him.

What a great turnaround. I'm so pleased that he's managing to work through his problems. I always liked him as a player (despite of his silly car, clothes, tan and reported questionable off field attitude) to me he always came across as he loved the club. I hope he manages to come through this - good luck Lee.

Well done to Lee on finishing the London Marathon, running on behalf of Cure Leukaemia.

Indeed, I saw him the other day and he was a bit worried about it as he said he hadnt had the opportunity to do the training he wanted. Well done Lil Lee.

Watch his goals on YouTube and it stands out how talented he was and how much he loved scoring for us.

Have to say I have seen both sides of Hendrie.

I was working at the Villa near the end of his time with us. He turned up to training in what I presume was a brand new range rover sport. He was chatting proudly about it with Delaney on his way into training. That day there were some competition winners (disabled kids) who were there to meet their favourites and get their shirts signed.

The whole first team squad came out except Hendrie, who snuck out and flew off in his new Range. Thought it was absolutely disgraceful.

However I have met him a few times since outside the ground and in press box. Seems a very humble guy now and was extremely nice to my young nephew on his first trip to villa park. Really made time for him and took plenty of photos.

Glad to see he has changed from the spoilt young man he was. Good luck to him

Hope this is a permanent and sustained move in the right direction for Lee Lee Lee Hendrie. I used to love him as a player but, that aside, this sounds like a fantastic initiative and good news for all involved.

He enjoyed that didn't he? The keeper had no chance.
