Hendon updates

[Blues with Soul.]

Turning point of the game for me was TY sustitution of Stubbs for Gregory.This reinforced the midfield and allowed WW to get

forward - Result? We score 2 goals.

Plaudits also to Mullin and Quain - the best game I've seen him play.

[Boney Crisp]

Well done blues on a great win. BLUE ARMY!!!!!

[I am Spartacus]

Bitter cold day as TT says pitch would have been a credit to Kent Ploughing Championship.

 

I think we actually got a bit of luck at long last today and the ball fell our way on a couple of occasions. There were players out there today playing for the shirt.

 

My MOM has to be between Bruce, Pat and Barry.

 

Onwards and upwards to 3 more points at the Brick Yard on Tuesday Night (double Thermals required).

 

[SteveR]

Congratulations on the win today, thoroughly deserved. We were awful, particularly in the second half and deserved nothing other than a defeat.

[TonyM]

Nice one Steve,much appreciated,hope the rest of your season goes well,Hendon are a very good club,all the best.

I think things started to change when Kenny came on and started immediately having a got at their defence, they started arguing amongst themselves and lost their concentration. A bloody good and desperately needed win.

Livescore website already have us down with a -10 already , amazing . Must be an error or a good Omen as to what our penelty will be on Wednesday . Up the Gate .

[Porka]

We have 18 points HDF.. that site must be still showing the table before yesterday's games. 8 points with the deduction leaves us hanging onto Heybridge's heels with the squad starting to hit their stride.

Further quick summary of yesterdays game:

 

First 20 minutes-Margate the marginally better side.

Rest of first half -we were dreadful.

 

Half Time-CREDIT to TY for changing things around-as others post above pratt came on-but for me-it was the re-organisation the TY made in defence than made the difference-and then added to this when Gregory came on-not because Gregory had a massive influence as such-but possibly gave Wilson a bit more defensive cover enabling wilson to be a bit more expansive.

 

Its a funny old game though-and games are so often changed by one incident.

I was thinking after about 60 minutes how we were losing 1-0 but up to then Mullins had not really had a shot to save (plenty of backpasses though ),then Mullins arguably luckily got away with a booking when other refs in front of more hostile home supporters would have sent him off,we score two great goals.lead 2-1 .Mullins pulls of 2 great saves and one outstanding save when he was wrongfooted, did a double twist, pike ,backward flip and tipped it over the bar .

 

Just about deserved the win on second half performance.

The luck went our way yesterday-and just about deserved it

 

Mom -Mullins-for his saves -yes-but equally for doing the simple things and decision making right-collecting the ball when it was his ball ,and leaving it to defence when they should clear it.He alsao dealt well with numerous awkward back passes;and again credit to TY for making good and early substitutions.

As others post-WW obviously gets credit for his goal(s),and similarly, i thought Quain had a pretty good game

 

I also feel Robinson is worthy of mention-had a barely average first half-mainly because i thought he tried to get forward too much; but in second half -he played deeper -and seemed fairly solid at left back in a defensive role (i wonder whether TY gain told him to concentrate on his defence in second half and forget about going forward-if he did-it worked to the credit of both of them )

[Chris1]

Perhaps Southall should get some credit because TY was in the stands the whole game.

[TonyM]

I think Robinson is a quality player,apparently his problem is training.
