Addison plays up United's promotion credentials

It was certainly en emphatic display from Hereford United last night, who beat local rivals Forest Green Rovers 5-1.

Bulls director of football Graham Turner praised his side's performance highly, after three second-half goals wrapped up the points.

"We were full of running, ideas and creativity," he said. "We never allowed them to upset our rhythm."

In the other dug-out battered Rovers manager Colin Addison had no reply to Hereford's attacking prowess. Summing up after the game, he felt Hereford were among the promotion favourites.

"Hereford are certainly a team to be reckoned with this season. They played some excellent football and scored some great goals," said the former Hereford boss. "They are a team to be reckoned with this season and I congratulate them and Graham Turner on a great performance.

"They've absolutely whipped up tonight and I haven't got any complaint about it. The score was right."
