Ian Hendon (born December 5, 1971 in Ilford) is an English professional footballer, currently playing for Barnet F.C., where he also serves as assistant manager. A defender, primarily at right-back but sometimes in the centre or in midfield, he began his career with Tottenham Hotspur, winning the FA Youth Cup in 1990. He made his first-team debut in 1989, and made seven appearances for the club over the next four years, also representing England Under-21 seven times. He had loan spells with Portsmouth, Leyton Orient and Barnsley before joining Orient on a permanent basis in August 1993. He spent three and a half years at Brisbane Road, with a brief loan spell at Birmingham City in 1995. He later played for Notts County, Northampton Town, Sheffield Wednesday and Peterborough United before joining then Conference side Barnet in 2003, having been on loan there six months previously. Joining up with his mentor Peter Shreeves, who has coached him at Tottenham and Sheffield Wednesday, he helped the club return to the Football League in his second season, and remained a key player for four years. At the end of the 2006–07 season, Hendon faced a dilemma. Initially, he was not offered a new playing contract by Barnet, but was given the chance to join Paul Fairclough's coaching staff. He was forced to decide whether to seek to further his playing career with another club, or to stay with the club he has grown to love, and start his coaching career earlier than planned. He decided to stay with the club, to work as Assistant Manager, and is still registered as a player, although not expected to feature in the first-team regularly. Nevertheless, he featured in the early fixtures of 2007–08, before dropping back as new players arrived.
