Turner after players with proven record
Hereford United manager Graham Turner is confident of securing players with Football League experience, particularly after the injury that David Brown picked up in training this week.
The former Telford attacker is expected to miss most of August's Conference games. He has broken a bone in his shoulder after clashing with Richard Teesdale in training on Wednesday. Initially, he thought nothing of the knock but on Thursday morning, got up in great pain and went to hospital, where it was confirmed as broken.
Turner felt that biding his time was the best option in securing new signings. He told BBC Hereford & Worcester: "Some of them are already on trial and training with league clubs. It is always their priority that they want to stay in the league if they possibly can. Once they've been rejected by the league clubs, then they turn their attention to us.
"I've got one or two irons in the fire with players who have league experience," he continued. "If they don't get fixed up with the league clubs that their working with at the moment, then there's an opportunity for us to pinch in and try and get them."
Steve Guinan is expected to return for the friendly match against Ludlow Town next Thursday after undergoing surgery in the summer, while Ben Smith has an ankle knock but could feature on Monday when the Bulls take on West Brom. Jordan King made his debut last night, and was Hereford's man-of-the-match as they beat Grosvenor Park 4-0.
