Burton inspired by Hereford

After Burton Albion beat Hereford United 4-1 last night, Brewers manager Nigel Clough was inspired by the performance.

Despite hammering the Bulls, Clough was impressed with United and tips them for a title challenge.

He told the Derby Evening Telegraph: "Hereford were the sharpest, quickest side we have played against and I think that inspired us.

"We've had to work so hard and that was the fundamental principle why we won the game. We did well in patches but, in terms of fluency, we've played better at times this season.

"The crowd have seen a glimpse of what Robbie Talbot can do and we are delighted for him."

Hatrick hero Talbot added: "I've not scored for a few games, so to get three was brilliant - I could not be happier.

"It was a magnificent moment when the third one went in and we've really deserved this because everyone has worked their socks off."
