Two posters on another thread said that was the case. Obviously no corroboration from the club. 

 

Club has said he's had family issues. 

Is there a reason to doubt them?? 

 

He was due to start against Celtic last week so it shows he's valued here, so that argument from before has no legs anymore

[Kiwidoug]

Devlin still at Kabul airport?

Interesting article as we do have Roberts, Popescu etc who are getting nowhere near the team

I'm just passing on what I had read. I hope it's wrong.

Is Devlin swimming all.the way from Australia?

Shows you how short we are with only 6 subs and mentioned that 3 of them including Henderson are going out on loan

 

Naming only 6 is a clear indicator to Popescu, Roberts that they will never get near this team. 

 

Where did you see Henderson going out on loan? 

He really pushed on last year so was hoping for him to continue it

 

Connor Smith is also a useful player to have around, can cover the wings & also filled in at RWB in pre season

[Drylaw Hearts]

Popescu, Roberts, Henderson, Walker and Gnando all need shipped out and replaced in the next week or so.

3 or 4 in apparently- interesting whether that counts Devlin & Woodburn.

 

Today shows that it's needed. Badly need some new striking options!

The only options we had really were Jamie Walker, Aaron McEneff and Euan Henderson – who will go out on loan as well. We need more in there.”

Depending on what strikers come in I’d be inclined to keep Henderson here. His pace at the end of games I think will be useful. Hopefully Woodburn is the creative spark We’ve been missing

Would be amazed if any more than two of those are still in the squad at the end of the window.

Devlin, Woodburn and 3 or 4 more seems to be the clubs target according to Robbie. Right wing-back, Centre back and Striker are a must, maybe an extra winger for the possible fourth one

Do you not think it's a positive taking time to make sure get right players rather than like past scatter gun signings who are rubbish and waste of money

Fine line between taking your time e.g. the months he's had and scrambling about in the last week of the window. Each to their own though. The squad is ridiculously thin.

I'm fine if takes bit longer to get it right after the dross we've signed last few years

Simply we either do this wait it out and get players like beni and Woodburn, or push the panic button at the start start of each window and end up with a damour and vanecek 🤨. 7 points from the first 3 games with players coming in certainly isn’t bad

Or end up paying fees for Australians you didn't need to pay a fee for indeed

[jr ewing]

Lose Gordon Souttar or Boyce we're going to be in big trouble. Squad desperately small. 

[Stendelnator]

A player like Woodburn desperately needed based on today

If true, Euan Henderson is finished at Hearts IMO

Yep, we could easily identify and sign some no mark we've just seen a video of in a matter of days. 

 

Glad it's no longer the way.

[Holyrood_Hearts]

I’m delighted to get Woodburn in.
 

Im disappointed Henderson & Connor Smith  are both going back on loan. So much for Neilson giving the kids a chance

Post match comments from everyone’s favourite manager….

 

Bit negative again today I felt, they were there for the taking.

 

Speaks about Kingsley’s absence, Woodburn’s transfer and another good performance from Beni.

I like Henderson, but I just don't ever see him cementing a place in our starting line up

[Rick Sanchez]

Henderson just doesn't have the self belief that he can make it at Hearts...IMO. I'm only basing that on his body language. He might fare better if his confidence is improved after a decent loan.

I thought he would have kicked on after end of last season as had some really bright moments. Another year in the championship could do him some good

Pollock is injured , Henderson is not good enough. Beni and Cochrane are both young.

Is Jamie Brandon fit? From what I recall he’s more attack minded than Smith so might be a better shout in there at rwb. At least until we can sort out a signing.

Youth will play if good enough.
