Hendon hails Bees play-off reward

Thursday Sep 29 2005 12:19

Barnet skipper Ian Hendon was delighted to see his side see off Leigh RMI 2-1 to clinch a place in the promotion play-offs.

Goals from Ismail Yakubu and Giuliano Grazioli set up a meeting with Shrewsbury Town in the semi-finals, as Hendon's penalty miss counted for little at the end of the game.

He said afterwards: "Their keeper deserves ten out of ten. On another day we could have had six or seven.

"I don't know how many one-on-ones we had and he also pulled off a great save to keep out my penalty, though it wasn't the best I've ever taken.

"But we're delighted to have made it.

"The players have shown a lot of character in the last few weeks. We've played like that for the last six or seven games."
