Gary Henshaw (born 18 February 1965) is an English former professional footballer who played in the Football League as a midfielder.[2] After retiring he worked as a commentator for his former team Bolton Wanderers. During the 2020–21 season he was criticised by then Bolton Manager Ian Evatt for his negative commentary, with Evatt annoyed that Henshaw was criticising the players despite them being on a winning streak.[3]
