Hendrie was one of two free transfers between the [[1983-84 in English football|1983–84]] and [[1984-85 in English football|1984–85]] seasons, along with [[Dave Evans (footballer)|Dave Evans]], as manager [[Trevor Cherry]] tried to build a team capable of promotion from [[Football League Third Division|Division Three]]. Hendrie was an ever-present in his first season scoring nine goals from his [[Midfielder#Winger|right wing]] position as City won the Division Three title. On the last day of that successful season his day was to turn into a nightmare when 56 spectators were killed in a horrendous stand fire while playing Lincoln City.
 
Hendrie continued to be one of the first names of the City team-sheet following promotion and during his four seasons at City he missed just one league game. He won a series of fans' awards and nominations for the PFA teams in 1987 and 1988.<ref name="frost"/> He scored ten goals in [[1985-86 in English football|1985–86]] and 14 more in [[1986-87 in English football|1986–87]]. Cherry had been replaced by [[Terry Dolan (footballer)|Terry Dolan]], who built a team pushing for promotion to [[Football League First Division|Division One]] in [[1987-88 in English football|1987–88]]. Hendrie was one of the key men, scoring 13 goals, but he was sent off in a 2–2 draw at [[Manchester City F.C.|Manchester City]] on 23 April 1988. His subsequent suspension meant he missed the final league game of the season, as City lost 3–2 to [[Ipswich Town F.C.|Ipswich Town]] and missed out on promotion. It was the only league game Hendrie missed during his time at Valley Parade, and his 173 consecutive league appearances has only been beaten by [[Geoff Smith (footballer, born 1928)|Geoff Smith]] with City.<ref>{{cite book | last = Frost | title = Bradford City A Complete Record 1903-1988 | year = 1988 | page = 377}}</ref> Hendrie came back for the [[Football League Championship play-offs|play-off]] games with [[Middlesbrough F.C.|Middlesbrough]] but after defeat he signed for [[Newcastle United F.C.|Newcastle United]] for £500,000.<ref name="frost"/>
