Career

Herd made his debut for Southend United away at Telford United, in the 2–2 draw in the FA Cup first round on 8 November 2008 .[1][2]

He was in the Southend United starting line up for the FA Cup third round game against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge. Southend's equaliser came from a Herd long throw, which was inadvertently flicked on by Ricardo Carvalho for Peter Clarke to score. In May 2011, he was one of five players told they were to be released by the club.[3]

On 11 August 2011, Herd signed for Ebbsfleet United, and in early September he scored his first career goal in the away tie at Kidderminster Harriers in a 2–2 draw. Herd's appearances were less regular in the second half of the season due to the form of Joe Howe and he was released by Ebbsfleet at the end of the season.[4] Following his release, Herd signed for Bishop's Stortford on a one-year deal.
