Depends on why the ref sent him off, if it's for a punch then he will resind, as it clearly wasn't, if not then Henry will get his chance. And, he will shine

If Coppell doesn't play Henry I will be surprised, he likes specialists and playing with two out and out wingers. Neither Gunnar or Marek are wingers by any stretch of the imagination.

As far as possible I prefer the balance of a team to be unchanged,e.g you don't put a full-back in goal if the keeper can't play you play the reserve keeper.
Likewise if the right-winger is out you play the reserve winger.
This is a big opportunity for Henry to play in two very winnable fixtures,and if he doesn't shine his long term future at RFC will be in doubt.
BTW Winchester Royal must be creaming himself at the prospect of seeing Henry play twice in a week. :wink:

TNR Kebe is overrated.

Agreed. Give Henry a game.
:wink:


Careful chap! The "Kebe is God" squad will be after you for that misdemeanor! You know who they are!

Oh, and did we win playing with 10 men without him? Shit ... what was that knock at the door? Got to run whilst I still can .....

londinium Its a real tough one actually... If Murts is fit then Rossie can play on the wing if not Henry is our only out and out winger.

One thing i can guarantee is that Murty will NOT play. Even if he is fit.

A jumped up Lita would be unstoppable surely?

Of course, that's why Henry's been put on the bench and made numerous substitute appearances lately... He's obviously out of favour with SC. & To all those saying Coppell doesn't believe in the youth setup, he's managed to bring out some of the best ever footballers from youth (see, CP Ian Wright). :D Here's hoping he can do the same for Henry, Pearce and Karacan. :wink:

IIRC Wright didn't come through a youth system, he entered football quite late.

Anyone saying Coppell doesn't give youth a chance must have forgotten all the appearances of Kelly, Henry, Pearce and Karacan this season.

The Barnsley fans say Souza didn't do anything but that Kebe flung out an arm at him as he ran past. Definite red according to them.

BBCRB said he pushed him on the shoulders.

Say if Henry does start the next three games, would this see Bobby Convey return to the Reading bench, as Coppell likes to have a winger on the bench.
