In defence of Gavin Henson


The sharks are out this morning! Team Wales are having a field day feasting on the rugby playing corpse of Gavin Henson. His crime, throwing ice cubes around an aeroplane. "It's not the first time, burn the witch" For goodness sake, it's because he's not a team player, it's because he is an individual. He thinks outside the Prince of Wales feathers. He is a Non-Conformist. There are plenty of Rugby pundits in Wales. The air waves are red hot, the 'Wasted Mail' are revelling in it. Sacked screams the headline, front page and back. People have been waiting for this to happen. We build them up and we knock em down. Does Charlotte Church v the News of the World bare any responsibility for her ex-partner's and the father of her children's celebrity demise? What will happen to the immature non-team player now? Where is the Psychological Intervention? I've got loads of questions I have. I don't want to see him propping up the bar in the Old Arcade spinning yarns of yesteryear and then catching the bus up to Llandaff North to dry out in a flat. Wales is responsible! Team Wales is responsible for his talent and his behavior. Step up to the Mark the W.R.U. and Cardiff Rugby Club. You took a risk, you took a gamble.
You are sponsored by an Alcohol Magnate. What was the substance implicated in 'Ice Cube Gate'? Alcohol. Gavin Henson is a scapegoat because he doesn't toe the line in Team Wales. I would have done the same, thrown a few ice-cubes about the place to wake up these Committee Men! He has been set up to fail. Mike Phillips saw the writing on the wall when he fell the wrong side of the Bouncer outside the Ronald McDonald Emporium in surprise, surprise 'St Mary Street' the street of a clock and alcoholic shame. He buggered off to France sharpish because he knew that Trinity Mirror would be out to catch him again. I wouldn't be surprised that it was a 'Wasted Mail' journalist who handed him the ice-cubes.
