Wright looks forward to Friday
Ex-Hereford captain, 31 year-old Ian Wright, is hoping to be fit to face his old team when they meet at Burton on Friday. Wright had a bad ankle injury last Saturday when playing against Telford and had to come off.
In an interview in the Derby Evening Telegraph, he says he's apologised in advance for wrecking the Bulls unbeaten record and has told player-manager Nigel Clough of the strengths and weaknesses of his former team.
He reckons the Brewers can be the first side to beat them when they meet at Eton Park and has already said sorry to striker and joint top-scorer Steve Guinan in readiness of putting one over on his former side.
Wright said: "I'm confident we can get something from them and I'm really looking forward to it. I played golf with Steve Guinan recently and apologised to him beforehand because we are going to beat them. We've got a very good chance with the way we are playing at the moment.
"It was the game I looked for when the fixtures game out and I know plenty about them.
"In the past, Hereford's problem has been scoring goals but I've spoken to some of the lads and they've said everything is going in at the minute.
"That's the only difference they can see. They are scoring a lot and conceding very few.
"Nigel Clough has asked me about them and I think we can be dangerous at set-pieces as they are not very strong in the air.
"Hopefully, I will be all right to play. I jarred my ankle against Telford and it felt bad at the time but it's settled down now and I'm keen to get over it so I can start."
Wright admitted it was a tough decision to leave Hereford but he wanted to begin a new career outside the game and couldn't commit to full-time football.
He is now seeking a job after qualifying as an electrician and added: "It was a wrench to leave as I had been there for so long.
"But you've got to leave some time and I'd got to start doing something else with my life rather than just playing football.
"It's nice to play part-time at Burton but, to be honest, I can not see a difference between us and the full-time sides."
