    And you were trying to form an opinion on from Blackburn fans from the PL and championship otherwise you wouldn't have posted it?

    "Where is it stated he'll be an understudy?".

    Iv'e never claimed that it was stated anywhere, neither have i stated that he 100% is an understudy. I simply THINK he will be one based on his career to date and length of contract.

    Please do keep trying though.

    No, I just can't be arsed going backwards and forwards over such a mute point. From your previous debates you aren't likely to admit your wrong anyway!

    He's not proven at Championship level therefore I'm not sure he's going to be an understudy or a starter is obviously suggesting a doubt based on prior form at an incomparable level.

    That is what that statement is. A doubt. Based on history.

    Looks a good signing, not a lot of recent games but no doubt has ability. GB flexing his contacts, like it.

    @Faithful Bantam@Faithful Bantam you are making me wet with all this transfer news.

    From the Blackburn forum:

    ...Henley , Feeney... if you aren't good enough then you aren't good enough. Loyalty and a good attitude only go so far, at some point you need to add talent in order to progress

    ...We don't want to end up with another Adam Henley.

    ...As for young fullbacks Henley and Bell are classic examples of having zero awareness.

    ...At one point Henley even looked a player, briefly.

    What happened to Henley's form? He went from Welsh international who marked Stirling out of the game and turned into a clueless, shirt-tugging liability.

    ...Amazing that Henley can't even get into the first team of a minor MLS club. That kid has really lost his way. I mean, he always looked like a kid playing with men, but I wouldn't have expected his career to spiral as fast as it has.

    In response to a thread named 'Worst ever player to play for Rovers':
    "Adam Henley became out of his depth rubbish."

    Total appearances in the previous 2 seasons: 8

    There's a chance that league 2 might be more his level but i can't imagine he's been brought in to play first team football based on that.

    Seems we’re going to be playing hoofball this season. With no target men.
    Where’s the midfielders?!

    No. They are comments taken from 2018.

    Weirdly enough, his reputation was at its highest when he came through as a youngster. Highly rated early on (whatever that's worth these days) but has failed to establish himself.

    “The main aim, from my point of view, is helping to get this club back to where it belongs. That has to be the only goal."

    Where do we actually belong Adam?

    Given he's only signed a one year contract he doesn't see us as belonging any higher than league 1 !!

    Because he’s the fifth player out of six we’ve signed who plays on our side of the pitch ;)
