Hereford United Football Club are an English football club based in the city of Hereford. They were founded in 1924 and currently play in League Two, the fourth tier of English football. Originally elected to the Football League in 1972 and reaching the old Second Division by 1976, the club spent the majority of their first League spell in the bottom division. They were relegated to the Conference on the final day of the 1996-97 season, but regained their Football League status at the end of the 2005-06 season after winning the 2006 Conference Playoff Final.[1]

Hereford have won relatively few honours in their history, with the 1976 Third Division Championship and the 1990 Welsh Cup among them. They became synonymous with giant-killing in the FA Cup after their memorable defeat of Newcastle United, in the 1971-72 FA Cup whilst still a Southern League team. They are nicknamed 'The Whites' and the 'The Bulls', after the local breed of cattle; and they have played their home matches at Edgar Street since their founding.

Graham Turner, currently the second longest-serving manager in the top four divisions of English football, has managed the club since 1995. He became chairman during the 1997-98 season and has held this dual-role ever since, steering the club away from near-extinction and back into the Football League.

History:
Hereford United was formed from the amalgamation of two local amateur clubs St Martins and RAOC (Rotherwas) in 1924; relatively late in comparison to many other clubs. Prior to 1924 the leading club in the area was Hereford City, with whom the newly formed Hereford United ground-shared in their early years. They entered the now defunct Birmingham Combination and their first match, on 30 August 1924, was a 3-2 home defeat to Atherstone United.
Their first four seasons saw many high-scoring games which was typical of the times, with attendances occasionally reaching the 3,000 mark. They then joined the Birmingham League for the 1928-29 season, after an unsuccessful application the year before. Notable early events included the sale of Bert Trentham to West Brom for £500, who went on to win the FA Cup and promotion to the First Division the following season. Hereford appointed a player-manager for the first time in 1930-31, in the shape of Alf Basnett who had spent several seasons in the First Division with Burnley. Two seasons later they reached the FA Cup First Round for the first time in their brief history, losing 2-1 to Accrington Stanley of the Third Division (North).
By 1939 the quality of opposition in the Birmingham League was greatly reduced as more clubs joined higher leagues, and attendances had dropped to an all-time low. Hereford successfully applied to join the Southern League for the 1939-40 season, following the example of local rivals Worcester City. In the process the club became a limited company, and the club also signed former Derby County and England international Eric Keen. However footballing matters were subsequently halted due to the outbreak of the Second World War.
In 1945-46 Hereford finished first in the Southern League but were demoted to second, after Chelmsford City were controversially awarded the title on the basis of points being awarded for fixtures they had failed to complete. In November 1952 Hereford v Leyton was chosen as BBC TV's first ever live-broadcast FA Cup match. In their 26 season stay in the Southern League, Hereford finished as runners-up on three occasions and won their regional division in 1959. They were also relegated in 1964, their lowest finishing position but bounced back a season later. The club also enjoyed some success by winning the Southern League Cup three times. In 1953-54 Hereford played Wigan Athletic in front of 24,526, which remains the record attendance for a match between two non-league clubs. Other highlights included equalling the record win by a non-league club over a league club, when they beat Queens Park Rangers 6-1 in the 1957-58 FA Cup Second Round. In the following round the attendance record at Edgar Street was set, with 18,114 seeing Sheffield Wednesday win 3-0.
John Charles, the former Wales, Leeds United and Juventus centre-forward, was signed in 1966 and later appointed as player-manager in 1967. His presence boosted attendances substantially, particularly for his debut match where he scored in a 5-1 win over Bedford Town. The Gentle Giant played a key role in Hereford's eventual rise into the Football League, building a team that became a force in the Southern League. His standing in the game was also used to canvass votes from clubs for election into the Football League.
The 1971-72 season saw the club finally gain election to the Football League. Charles had resigned in October 1971 and Colin Addison took his place, inheriting a team which also went on to defeat Newcastle United in arguably the greatest FA Cup shock of all time.[11] (see also Hereford United v Newcastle United 1972). Success followed in the Fourth Division when Hereford finished as runners-up in their first ever season in the Football League. Their rise continued in 1975-76 when they won the Third Division championship with Dixie McNeil being the top goalscorer in the entire Football League in the process.
However Hereford were to spend just one season in the Second Division, finishing bottom, although they nearly survived due to a late season renaissance. This earned them the distinction of being the first club to finish bottom of the Second Division, after winning the Third Division the previous season. They suffered another relegation the following season and were back in the Fourth Division where they were to remain for 19 years. There were many mediocre seasons with the club finishing in 17th position in five successive seasons during the late 1980s and early 1990s.
The Merton Stand, before the kickoff against Stockport County on 3 February 2007, viewed from the Len Weston Stand.In 1990 Hereford won the Welsh Cup, defeating Wrexham 2-1 at Cardiff Arms Park, and reached the playoffs in the 1995-96 season, rising from 17th to 6th position in two months. They were beaten by Darlington and the following season saw the club struggle due to major financial problems which forced the sale of several key players. Brighton & Hove Albion were also experiencing similar difficulties and the two clubs met in a relegation decider at Edgar Street, on the final day of the season. With the clubs level on points, and the goals-scored rule in operation, Hereford needed to win to stay up while Brighton only needed a draw. Hereford were 1-0 up but Brighton equalised against the run of play and Hereford were relegated to the Conference after 25 years in the Football League.
Hereford's financial problems worsened in the 1997-98 season when two loans were secured by the board, which created a £1 million debt. The lease on Edgar Street was also handed over to developers, who had supplied the loans. Graham Turner, who had been appointed manager in 1995, purchased the majority shares in the club therefore becoming both chairman and manager. In the early years in the Conference there was little success, with three FA Cup runs in 1997-98, 1999-00 and 2001-02 being the highlights. The revenue gained from the cup runs was crucial to the club's survival, with a 1-0 win over Dover Athletic in 2001 identified as being the difference between survival and bankruptcy.
Hereford turned the corner in 2003-04 when they enjoyed a highly successful season on the pitch, coming to within one point of the Conference championship. They set the record for away goals scored (61), and equalled the records for goals scored (103) and consecutive wins (11). The highlight of the season was the 9-0 defeat of Dagenham & Redbridge live on Sky Sports, which equalled the record Conference win set by both Runcorn and Gateshead. Ultimately Hereford were to lose in the playoffs on penalties to Aldershot Town, after playing with 10 men for 100 minutes.
2004-05 saw the club again finish second and again lose in the playoffs, this time to Stevenage Borough. They finished as runners-up for the third season in succession in 2005-06 and finally regained their league status, after defeating Halifax Town 3-2 in the 2006 Playoff Final.
The club's first season back in the Football League saw them finish in 16th position, recording league wins over five of the top eight clubs. In particular the away wins at Swindon Town and Lincoln City have been cited by supporters as the highlights. In the cup competitions Championship side Coventry City were defeated in the Carling Cup, and League One side Port Vale in the FA Cup. The club also paid a transfer fee for the first time in 10 years when Ben Smith rejoined the club for £20,000. Steve Guinan, another favourite from the Conference years, also returned on loan and subsequently signed permanently in the summer of 2007.

Colours and crest
Hereford players sporting the away kit at Notts CountyHereford originally played in an all-white strip, but their traditional colours are white shirts and black shorts. This dates back to the end of the Second World War when they used material from blackout curtains to make shorts when they ran out of white material. However they have occasionally reverted to an all-white strip, most recently in the 2004-05 and 2005-06 seasons. Their away colours have varied over the years, with predominantly yellow colours being used in recent years. Hereford's kit is currently manufactured by Nike and the shirt sponsors are Sun Valley Foods; one of the city's biggest employers who have backed the club since 1991. A new three year deal was agreed in May 2007 which has extended the sponsorship to 19 years, one of the longest in British football history.
Prior to 1971 the club played in plain shirts with no crest. A depiction of a Herefordshire Bull was introduced for the 1971-72 season with H.U.F.C. lettering underneath. A supporter's club crest was also used during the 1970s. The shirt crest design has changed several times over the years, with the full club name being added above and below the Bull, which has remained largely untouched. The current crest was introduced in the early 1990s but was not featured on the shirts until 2003.

Stadium
Hereford United have played their home matches at Edgar Street since their formation in 1924. Originally they ground-shared with amateurs Hereford City and the ground is owned by Hereford City Council. Although now showing its age, the ground's history does have some notable landmarks; Hereford installed floodlights in March 1953, before such clubs as Liverpool, Chelsea and Manchester United !. In 1974 the ground was the only one outside the First Division with two cantilever-roof stands. In those days the ground's official name was Edgar Street Athletic Stadium; there was a running track around the pitch. This explains the curious curved "dead" areas behind each goal and in front of the terraces, and the extreme width of the pitch where the old track was turfed over to produce one of the League's widest pitches. In far more recent years the ground has been central to Hereford's financial troubles, with the previous owners of the club handing the leases over to a development company to whom they owed a large debt. During the club's time in the Conference there were real doubts over the future of the ground, and the club could have been forced to relocate. However an arrangement was made between the club and the developers, and the ground is now part of a substantial redevelopment plan in Hereford, known as the Edgar Street Grid.
The ground itself has changed little since the mid 1970s, and is largely outdated and in need of urgent upgrading. In particular the Blackfriars Street End has fallen into a state of disrepair in recent years, which has in turn reduced the capacity of the ground. Improvements have been made in recent years to ensure the ground met Football League standards; including new floodlights, dressing rooms and barriers on the terraces. The pitch itself has also been completely relaid for the new season. The club are looking to submit the redevelopment plans to the council by the end of the year, with the developers absorbing the £1 million debt into the development costs.

Support
Hereford United was historically one of the best-supported clubs in non-league football, particularly in the last two seasons before their election to the Football League. Indeed in their campaign for election they produced a newsletter which highlighted the fact that their average attendance (5,224) was higher than those of eight Third Division clubs, and fifteen Fourth Division clubs. Between 1972 and 1977, during the club's rise to the Second Division, home attendances averaged almost 8,000 per game. The support fell during the 1980s with the average home attendance under 3,000, the exception being the 1984-85 season when the club finished fifth.
It was not until the latter Conference years that attendances improved, with the 2003-04 season seeing the average home attendance rise to 3,704. The following season saw the figure drop to just over 3,000 while in the 2005-06 season, despite the club successfully gaining promotion, the figure was 2,791. However approximately 10,000 Hereford supporters attended the Conference Playoff Final. For the 2006-07 season the club had an average home league attendance of 3,327. With the exception of 2003-04, this is the highest average attendance since the 1984-85 season (3,881).
The club's official programme is Bullseye and there is also a fanzine called Talking Bull.

Home attendances
The club has rarely enjoyed capacity crowds at Edgar Street in recent years, having last seen a five-figure home attendance in 1990. Below is a list of the highest attendances at Edgar Street since 1972.
17,431 – Bristol City, FA Cup Fourth Round, 26 January 1974.
15,777 – Arsenal, FA Cup Third Round, 5 January 1985.
14,849 – Newport County, Fourth Division, 7 April 1973.
13,891 – Wolverhampton Wanderers, Second Division, 2 October 1976.
13,777 – Manchester United, FA Cup Fourth Round, 28 January 1990.
Since the reduction of the Edgar Street capacity in line with the Taylor Report the highest home attendance has been 8,953 in 1994 - a Coca Cola Cup Second Round match against Nottingham Forest. The highest league home attendance was 8,532 in 1997 - the relegation decider against Brighton & Hove Albion.

Club anthem
The club's official anthem is Hereford United (We All Love You) which was written and performed by the late Danny Lee, a notable supporter of the club. Originally recorded and released in 1972, the same year as the famous FA Cup run, a rendition is usually sung at every Hereford match both home and away. The song has been remixed three times: in 1979, 2002 and 2006.

Rivals
Hereford have had a number of rivalries with other clubs throughout their history. In the club's Southern League era Worcester City were considered their fiercest rivals. Both Cardiff City and Newport County were considered rivals in the 1970s and 1980s. In the recent Conference era the club's rivals included Kidderminster Harriers, Cheltenham Town and Shrewsbury Town; the latter being considered the club's biggest rivals at present. Forest Green Rovers also count Hereford as rivals.

Watford loanees cup-tied?



Hereford United supporters will be biting their nails a little closer to the quick over the next few days, as they await official confirmation from the club regarding the availability of the Watford pair Toumani Diagouraga and Theo Robinson (pictured) for their attractive looking FA Cup tie with Leeds United.
Both players have been highly instrumental in the Bulls' fine start to the season, and it is hoped Watford do not enforce a 'cup-tied' ruling.
Aidy Boothroyd's side are flying in the Championship so it could be argued the players would be better off getting as much competitive, first team football as possible.
However, if Diagouraga and Robinson are ruled out by the Hornets, it could stretch Hereford's squad to the limit.
Mind you with Watford currently sitting at the top of their division - some five points clear of Bristol City in second place - surely Graham Turner can persuade his opposite number that the players immediate future will be best served at Edgar Street.
Indeed, looking further ahead, perhaps now is the time for the club to place an initial 'transfer' offer on the table to take the pair permanently, or alternatively open negotiations to extend the players loan periods right to the end of the season!

Trewick eyeing Leeds pay-day

Hereford first-team coach John Trewick is eagerly anticipating the FA Cup first-round clash with high-profile League One opposition Leeds.
Dennis Wise's team travel to Edgar Street on November 9 and the match will be televised live on Sky - a welcome financial boost for the League Two side.
A full house is expected for the all-ticket affair and Trewick is glad to be facing such big-name opposition, and he told the club's official website: "Leeds are probably the biggest draw that was on offer and it is a mouth-watering prospect.
"Obviously we would have wanted an easier draw but this is a tie the fans can really look forward to.
"The icing on the cake is the Sky coverage which, financially, is good news for us."

Turner expecting a sell-out



With just 7,700 tickets available for next weeks eagerly anticipated FA Cup clash with Leeds United, the Bulls boss Graham Turner was hardly surprised to see queues outside the ticket office this afternoon.

Season-ticket holders had the first opportunity of getting their hands on their precious tickets from 12 noon today, and with a capacity crowd expected, many wished to claim their favourite seats.
The Hereford boss confirmed that season ticket holders have until 4pm on Friday to collect their allocated tickets, whilst membership card holders can claim theirs from nine o'clock on Friday morning until 2:30 pm this coming Saturday.
Tickets are priced at £20 for seats and £15 for terrace tickets.
This is the first time for many years that the club has issued cup vouchers, such is the expected demand for tickets, and this is something Graham Turner was pleased to introduce - as he explained in an interview with the club's official website.
'We have to satisfy our good supporters - which are the season ticket holders first and foremost - so they've got first opportunity to buy tickets. Not only one for their own season ticket book, but we've decided to offer them the option of a second ticket.
'Then we've got the membership holders as our next priority as we want to make sure they've got a ticket.
'And then the voucher system.
'Good supporters will be here against Darlington on Saturday, so if we increase the gate that will be fine, but we've got to make sure that those who aren't season ticket holders, and haven't got a membership card but turn up week-in-week-out do get the opportunity for some priority towards getting a ticket.
'After that they will go on general sale.
'I think it will be a full house, and we are now waiting to see what space the cameras require. That may take 20 or 30 seats here, and there. They'll also probably want to build a studio behind the Blackfriars Street goal. This will all take a few off our overall ground capacity.
'So, there are plenty of logistical issues to sort out with Sky television before we fix the actual match capacity. But we've got to send Leeds their tickets fairly quickly so they can go on sale there.
'We've organised opening times after the match on Saturday so it'll be as convenient as possible for supporters to get their tickets. If they can't get them on Saturday, then they can obviously collect them on Tuesday when we play Mansfield.
'We've got over 1,000 season ticket holders, so they can purchase one for themselves, and maybe an extra one - so there's 2,000. Plus I believe we have around 400 members, so that means around 2,500 tickets will be allocated there.
'Our capacity is now around the 7,700 mark and I think Leeds will take around 2,000 to 2,500 of that.
'So, we should have around 2,000 to 2,700 available for general sale.
'Hopefully that's enough to go around!'

Turner savours Leeds challenge
 
Speaking to the club's official website, the Hereford United manager Graham Turner has expressed his delight over the FA Cup 1st Round draw, which sees the Bulls up against the once mighty Leeds United.




The match will take place on Friday, 9th November with a 7:45 kick-off and will be broadcast live across Europe and beyond via Sky Television.
Turner revealed a preference for evening fixtures. Especially for a game of this magnitude:
'I think it's always been a bit special to play under lights.
'We've always performed that much better, and with the presence of cameras and the atmosphere from the crowd I think it's what the magic of the FA Cup is all about.
'I don't care that we've got Leeds in the 1st Round. My initial wish was for the smallest club in the competition at home, but we've actually got the biggest club at this stage!
'It just couldn't get any better.
'Leeds are a club that were playing in the Champions League five or six years or so ago - they were in the semi-final in fact, and so to draw them out of the hat brings you all the best feelings and emotions.
'It's what the FA Cup is all about.
'We hope it'll be a good night, and we hope to give our supporters a lot to savour for many years to come!'
Turner gave an update on the loan players eligibility for the FA Cup tie, and indicated that Watford have yet to clarify whether Toumani Diagouraga and Theo Robinson will be available for selection, but Liverpool have confirmed that Robbie Threlfall can play.

Denne kampen krasjer med konserten til Kaizer Chiefs, det er mulig vi får med oss første omgang. Eller noen som skal på konserten tar kontakt med Kaizer Chiefs å spør om de kan se kampen sammen med oss slik at det oppvarmingsbandet de skal ha kan spille til kampen er over.

Jaja blir jo helt sikkert ikke å skje. Hadde æ visst dette her så hadde æ nok ikke betalt 750 kroner for 2 billetter til konserten.

Bulls charge in for Reds defender
Hereford have completed the signing of Liverpool defender Robbie Threlfall on an intial one-month loan to help ease their defensive crisis.
The 18-year-old has yet to play a senior competitive game for the Reds, but has been capped at England Under-19 level and was a part of the FA Youth Cup winning sides of 2006 and 2007.
He is predominantly a left-back, but can also be deployed in central defence or on the left-wing.
Hereford have confirmed that Threlfall will be eligible to play for the Bulls in their FA Cup first round tie against Leeds on November 9.
Manager Graham Turner moved to sign the defender on loan after first-choice central defenders Dean Beckwith and Karl Broadhurst were sidelined due to injury and suspension respectively.

Leeds FA Cup tie brings financial boost for Bulls

HEREFORD United look set for a massive cash bonus after being paired with Yorkshire giants Leeds United in the first round of the FA Cup.
The tie, which will be staged at Edgar Street on Friday, November 9, kick-off 7.45pm, has already been earmarked for Sky TV coverage, earning both clubs a payment of £75,000, and the prospect of a capacity crowd raises the financial stakes even higher.
"We expect to make a six-figure sum," said Bulls chairman and director of football Graham Turner.
"There has been lots of interest and BBC Radio 5 Live will be taking commentary on at least part of the game."
Leeds, who just six years ago were semi-finalists in the Champions League, are making their first ever appearance in the FA Cup's first round and the clamour for tickets began with season ticket holders queuing outside Edgar Street yesterday (Wednesday) to make sure of their places.

Season ticket holders have until Friday at 4pm to claim their tickets while membership card holders can obtain their ticket from 9am on Friday until 2.30pm on Saturday.
Vouchers will be issued at Saturday's Coca Cola League 2 clash with Darlington and voucher holders can obtain their tickets from 5pm on the same day.
All remaining tickets will go on sale on Monday lunchtime.
Ground capacity has been set at 7,700 with just over 2,000 tickets going to Leeds who have been allocated the entire Blackfriars Street End and the area under the Floors 2 Go stand at the Blackfriars End.
Tickets are priced at £20 for seating and £15 for terracing.

Turner is, meanwhile, working to ensure that Watford on-loan duo Toumani Diagouraga and Theo Robinson, who have both played key roles in United's success this season, will be allowed to play by their parent club.
"They would be devastated if they were not allowed to play," he said.
Turner has added another loan player to his squad by adding Liverpool teenager Robbie Threlfall to the Edgar Street ranks for a month.
"We tried to sign him during the summer but then he was chosen to go on Liverpool's tour to Hong Kong where he played for 30 minutes in the first-team against South China," said Turner.
Eighteen-year-old Threlfall, an England under-19 international, is principally a left-back who can also play at centre-back.
He will act as cover for the injured Dean Beckwith and for Karl Broadhurst, who is suspended for the Darlington match.
Steve Guinan is suspended for the next two games, too, while full-back Trent McClenahan will also be absent from Edgar Street on international duty later this month.
"It is most important that the players keep their feet on the ground," said Turner. "We have two important games - at home to Darlington on Saturday and then with Mansfield on Tuesday evening - with six points at stake.
"The message to the players is to get those league games out of the way first and then they can think about enjoying themselves against Leeds."

Kamp 3/11:

Hereford v Darlington

Loan defender Robbie Threlfall is set to make his Hereford debut after arriving on an initial one month's loan from Liverpool.
Striker Steve Guinan is out as he serves the second game of a three-match suspension and centre-back Karl Broadhurst is also banned after picking up his fifth yellow card of the season against Peterborough last weekend.

Darlington boss Dave Penney welcomes back striker Tommy Wright after suspension and Julian Joachim could also feature after his recent knee problem.
Defender Tim Ryan has recovered from a hamstring injury but David Stockdale is expected to again deputise in goal for Andy Oakes (hip).

Hereford 5 Darlington 1

Hereford upset Darlington with an impressive 5-1 victory as Dave Penney's defence suffered a horror show
The home side got off to a flying start with Richard Rose giving them the lead after just four minutes only for Joe Colbeck to draw Darlington level on 16 minutes.
Theo Robinson restored the home side's lead on 22 minutes and Ben Smith gave them a two-goal cushion with Hereford's third two minutes after the break.
Trevor Benjamin put the game beyond Darlington with Hereford's fourth just before the hour mark and Clint Easton completed the rout in the final minute.

Leeds: Countdown to the Cup
 
After a thirteen match unbeaten run, Leeds United suffered their first defeat in the league yesterday, falling to a 3-1 reverse at Brunton Park against Carlisle United.
Indeed, their manager Dennis Wise seems somewhat upset by what he described as poor defending - especially from set plays.
Whether a Hereford United side at the top of their form will be able to exploit this apparent weakness, we will have to wait and see.
Wise saw his side grab a 28th minute lead when Jermaine Beckford (pictured) snatched his eighth goal of the campaign, but Carlisle were a rejuvenated side after the break, capitalising on some inexplicable Leeds defensive howlers.
Leeds visit Dean Court for another League One fixture on Tuesday, and Wise told the Bradford Telegraph & Argus he wants to put things right straightaway:
'There is a lot to think about and look at before we take on Bournemouth.
'I was disappointed that we conceded three goals from set plays, because that is something we don't expect, but full credit to the lads - one defeat in 14 is a fantastic achievement and we have to try and get another run going as soon as possible.
'It is good that we have a game straightaway because we need to start performing again and not making those mistakes.
'You don't want to be waiting a week for the next game. You want to get the horrible things out of the way as soon as possible.
'Bournemouth will be difficult but we will pick ourselves up, dust ourselves down and do what we were doing in the 13 games before Saturday.'
Hereford United entertain Mansfield Town on the same night, and will be looking to maintain the superb form they showed against the Stags.
Mansfield have yet to win away from home this season, but under boss Billy Dearden their record has improved, so despite having one eye on the Leeds result at Bournemouth, United's players must remain focused.

Hereford v Leeds: Sell-out



The interest in the Bulls upcoming FA Cup First Round clash with Leeds United is such that 'sold-out' signs have been issued for all 'home' sections of the Edgar Street stadium.
It is understood Leeds have been allocated between 2,000 and 2,500 tickets for the tie, with Hereford initially offering the Yorkshire club the entire Blackfriars Street end of the ground.
Officials of both clubs are now in discussions to see if Leeds can return any unsold tickets, with a view to restoring a section of the Blackfriars Street Enclosure to Hereford supporters, providing adequate segregation can be put in place.
The current ground capacity is around the 7,700 mark.

Bulls ask Leeds for Tickets

Hereford United are hoping to 're-acquire some tickets from Leeds United who have yet to sell all of their allocation.'
The Official Website has said that the Bulls have sold out of tickets for home supporters.
If Hereford do obtain further tickets it hasn't been made clear where these might be for and how that might affect the segregation which will be needed at the game.
Leeds have the right to 15% of the tickets for the cup game which given a figure of about 7,700 as the capacity of Edgar Street equates to just under 1,200. However as Leeds were beleived to have been given tickets for the whole of the Blackfriars End and half the Len Weston Stand, the figure of 1,200 will have been exceeded.

Så du meiner at det er Wisey/Bates sin skyld?
Siden du nemner det som strategi. ;)

Selvfølgelig er det en strategi!   :)

Det betyr naturligvis ikke at det er Bates eller Wise sin skyld, men at enkelte "elementer" tolker krigsmetaforene litt for bokstavelig og får vann på mølla, er vel ikke helt usannsynlig?  ::)

Kamp 6/11:
Hereford - Mansfield, kl. 20.45:

Bulls unchanged for Stags clash
Hereford boss Graham Turner is likely to field an unchanged side to the one that thumped Darlington 5-1 when they take on Mansfield.
Five different Bulls players - Richard Rose, Theo Robinson, Ben Smith, Trevor Benjamin and Clint Easton - made the scoresheet at the weekend and all of them should retain their place in Turner's starting XI.
Young Liverpool loanee Robbie Threlfall will also continue at the heart of the Bulls defence after he produced an assured display in his debut but striker Steve Guinan serves the final game of his three-match suspension.
Dean Beckwith remains sidelined as he nurses a broken jaw while Karl Broadhurst could return to the first-team set-up after he completed the one-match ban he received for picking up five yellow cards last week.
