Arrive early for tonights game

Hereford United have asked supporters to arrive early for tonights game with Telford. The Bulls are expecting another large attendance and will not want to delay the start.

"The message is clear, please get here early" Graham Turner told BBC Hereford and Worcester.

Speaking about the game Turner said:"It's a test of character now and the players have proved that they have character when they came back from 2-0 down after ten minutes to beat Aldershot. We have to prove that we are a decent side capable of staying at the top all season."

As at late afternoon it is still uncertain whether Andy Tretton or Rob Purdie will be in the starting line-up. David Brown and Richard Teesdale are the likely replacements should they fail their fitness tests.

Meanwhile as well as the Hereford versus Dagenham game on Oct 13th being on Sky, it is being suggested that the Boxing fixture at Edgar Street against Exeter may also be televised. If so, the game will be an evening kick-off.

This has not been confirmed by Hereford United.
