Speciell match för Hendon
Barnets manager Ian Hendon har ett förflutet i dagens motståndare Notts County och hyser speciella känslor för the Magpies.
Det var under Sam Allardyce ledning 1997-1999 som Ian Hendon gjorde 82 matcher och 6 mål för Notts County. Hendon var också lagkapten och ledde laget till ligatiteln i Division 3 (League Two) 1998.
Hendon visar sig nu ha starka känslor för sin förra klubb:
"I've got strong ties with the club from my time there and that counts for a lot."
"I had a brilliant year there as a player and to some extent my heart is still with the club because that my daughter was born during my time there."
"I'm not applying for the job in any way now, but if the opportunity ever came up to manage Notts then, of course, I'd love to."
"It's a good football club and stadium and overall facilities demands to be at a higher level than League Two."
Sedan Hendon anslöt till Barnet 2003 har han spelat 3 matcher mot Notts County och gjort 3 mål. Han försäkrar dock att det inte blir något mål i eftermiddag:
"Whatever my next game is will be my last because I've had my ankle reconstructed not long ago."
"So I can assure Notts County fans won't be seeing Ian Hendon on the pitch this weekend!"
Ian Hendon väljer också att hylla Sam Allardyce som den bästa tränare han haft:
"Paul (Fairclough) is very different to any manager I've had in the past."
"I've played under some great managers like Peter Shreeves and Terry Venables who knew everything there was to know, but all managers have their different traits."
"I've tried to take the best of every manager I've worked under and feed that into my own style, though."
"If I was going to emulate any manager though it would be Sam (Allardyce) because he tells it how it is and you knew exactly where you stood as a player."
"And if I ever needed any advice then I know Big Sam is only at the other end of the phone."
