Harriers threw away the chance to record a top ten finish in this season's Blue Square Premier table after an awful performance saw them soundly beaten 3-0 at Woking.

With such a strong goal difference, as things went Harriers would have secured a tenth-place finish to end the term, but instead chose the final day of the campaign to turn in one of their worst showings of 2008-09.

Woking's Matt Pattison will take most of the headlines after an inspired performance for the Cards, but in truth he was allowed to grab two of the day's goals far, far too easily.

After the highly-rated Guiseppe Sole and Harriers' Russell Penn had both forced very good saves for their respective sides inside the first ten minutes, you thought it would be a taster for an evenly-matched afternoon.

But in truth that's about as even as it got. So full of slick passing and movement over the past two months, the visitors struggled simply to put any sort of move together, or even keep hold of the ball. 

Iyseden Christie was robbed of the ball for the first goal on 24 minutes; PATTINSON took hold and charged down on Chris MacKenzie's goal with only Christie racing back to try and cut out the danger - the Woking man held Iyseden off long enough to ground MacKenzie and finish from close-range.

Just before the half-hour, Harriers were sure they'd equalised when it looked like Christie had headed in Mark Creighton's cross, only for the officials to wave away appeals that the ball had hit the inner side-netting.

Five minutes the impressive Marvin Morgan should have punished lacklustre defending from the visitors, only to fire way over the bar from around six yards, whilst on the strike of half-time the men in yellow finally got into the Woking box, only for Darryl Knights to shoot wide.

Seven minutes after the break, Christie blazed another effort over the bar, shortly before Woking grabbed their second. With 55 on the clock, there was seemingly no real effort to stop Morgan's cross into the box - Bradley QUAMINA showed great control before blasting past the goalkeeper.

The defending for Woking's third on the hour mark was even worse - Quamina turned provider for PATTISON who, unchallenged, was able to turn in the box and get a shot away that MacKenzie had little chance with.

Ten minutes later, the best passing move of the game from the visitors saw sub Brian Smikle and Darryl Knights link-up to supply Christie who really should have done better, hitting over from around ten yards.

With nine minutes left to play, Pattison was denied a hat-trick by the tightest of angles - his rasping effort beat MacKenzie all ends up but flashed just across the face of goal.

A desperately disappointing end to the season for Harriers, and hardly a fitting way to repay the 150+ travelling contingent, but it's now all eyes on harriers.co.uk on the early part of next week as Mark Yates reveals who he'll be offering new deals to.
