Robbo rues postponement
Hereford United coach Phil Robinson was
understandably disappointed at yesterday's match
postponement.
The Bulls were due to play Nationwide Conference leaders Dagenham & Redbridge, but strong winds ripped off part of the roof at the Meadow End, and also cut the electricity supply to the public address system.
"Quite a large section of the roof has blown down and another part looks as though it might follow," said Robinson in tolday's Non-League Paper. "It's very disappointing but the safety of the fans is paramount so our safety officials were left with no choice but to call the game off."
"We've been existing on a week-to-week basis and with no revenue coming in today it's going to be a long time until our next home game a fortnight today."
The game is expected to be replayed in April, and Hereford's next match is at Farnborough Town on Tuesday night, kick off 7.45pm.
