Hendon Football Club

We are stunned and heartbroken to announce the sudden and tragic passing of midfielder Ezekiel Williams yesterday afternoon aged 26. A humble, unassuming and generous individual with a razor-sharp wit, Eze joined the club in September and quickly established himself as a highly popular member of the dressing room and was beginning to carve a place for himself in midfield with a series of hard-working and selfless displays that summed him up as a person. Only 10 days ago, he scored his first goal for the club against Jersey Bulls. As a sign of respect, and to allow the players and management time to process this profoundly shocking news, tomorrow’s London Senior Cup tie with Woodford Town has been postponed. There has been a gofundme page set up in Ezekiel’s memory for anyone who would like to support and donate. bit.ly/4ik5lRf Our thoughts and prayers are with Ezekiel’s family, friends, and everyone who knew him at this devastating time. He will be very sadly missed by all of us at Hendon Football Club. RIP Eze 💚🤍

Our London Senior Cup tie at Woodford Town will now take place on Wednesday 16 December with a 19:45 kick off.

Our home match against Binfield has now been rearranged for Tuesday 8 December, with a 7:45pm kick off.

GAME POSTPONED Following the tragic passing of Ezekiel Williams earlier this week, Saturday’s home game against @Binfieldfc has been postponed. We’d like to pass on our thanks to all at Binfield and the @theisthmianleaguer for their co-operation and support.

THE FISHER FILES - Adam talks to John after one of our most impressive displays in travelling to high-flying Bognor and coming away with a 3-3 draw, that really should have been a victory. youtube.com/watch?v=VJ8G0aIe…

100' Full Time A late thriller ends in a draw after 100 minutes of action. A massive point away, but heartbreak to concede late after leading 3-1 and creating so many chances. Safe travels back to all the travelling Dons! 🟢⚪️ 3-3

81' Block scores 3-3

45' Second half starts. Bognor were out early, but the Greens are out and ready to go for the second half! Big 45 minutes ahead at Nyewood Lane. 2-3

45' Half Time An absolute rollercoaster of a first half ends with the Greens ahead! Goals from Florian Ada (2) and John Shamalo have us in front at the break. 2-3

45' Smith Scores Right as 3 minutes of added time are announced, Bognor cross into the box. Penalty shouts are waved away before the ball is recycled to Lennie Smith, who spins on the spot and smashes it home. 2-3

40' INSTANT RESPONSE Instant response! Ada is played clean through on goal with the ball bouncing high, and despite being pulled back by the defender, he sticks out a foot to lob the keeper brilliantly! 1-3

37' Batt Scores Bognor’s first shot on target pulls one back. A deep free-kick is crossed to the back post, where Josh Batt sends a looping header over Josh Strizovic and into the top corner. 1-2

27' SHAMALO The Bognor keeper charges out of his box, but Shamalo rounded him with ease and smashes it past the defender covering on the goal line! 0-2
