Richard Hendrie (22 November 1895 – 15 April 1964) was a Scottish professional footballer, best remembered for his spells as left back and manager in the Football League with Gillingham.
Hendrie played for Petershill, Queen's Park and Airdrieonians in his native Scotland.[1] [2] Either side of a two-year spell with Third Division South club Gillingham, Hendrie played English non-League football for Maidstone United, Margate and Grays Thurrock United. He ended his career with Third Division South club Brentford and retired in 1929.[3]
While a player at Brentford between 1927 and 1929, Hendrie served as assistant to manager Harry Curtis. He returned to Gillingham in 1929 and managed the club until 1931, when he returned to the Southern League to manage Tunbridge Wells Rangers.
Hendrie served as a signalman in the Royal Naval Volunteer Reserve during the First World War.[4]
