Absolutely dire last night first half we could and should have scored at least a couple but as soon as the third goal went in the white flag went up again.

Defence wise, there have been numerous personnel tried with no real improvement, we have been weak at centre back even going back to pre-season and nothing sadly seems to be working. Also there is no leader on the field (especially when Kevin McClaren isnt playing) and heads seem to drop too easily.

Hopefully things can be turned around but a 4-0 home defeat to a bottom of the table side who wanted it far far more than Hendon is another low point in a season full of them sadly.. hopefully Leon Smith will add a little more attacking threat when he is fit again but in a season that we hoped would promise much, new ground, supporters returning to watch the team etc, to be without a home league win in December is far from ideal, if it hadn't been for the considerable Grays support last night I would hazard a guess the number of Hendon fans in the ground was sub Earlsmead numbers? only a winning team will bring some of the floating voters back and sadly at the moment no matter how we dress it up, we look a long way from being a winning team.

On a completely different note and a note to the catering department , the bacon roll I bought last night, was the smallest, stingiest bacon roll I can ever remember been served in 40 years of going to football matches !! One tiny piece of bacon served on a bite sized bun for 2 quid! I hope no one else make the same mistake I did of ordering one!
