Jimmy Quinn, the former Shrewsbury Town manager, is backing Stevenage to win the Conference title, and took a swipe at Graham Turner being both chairman and manager at Edgar Street in this mornings NLP.
"I'm going to stick my neck out and back Stevenage Borough for the title," said Quinn who then said that strikers Elding and Maamria are the key.
"Hereford, as ever, will be knocking on the door, but there are a lot of teams who have a shout.
"Hereford will probably be favourites and Graham Turner's teams always play good football. But with him being chairman as well as manager, he has to be careful he gets his budget right and that footballing matters don't get in the way of that.
"Certainly, his side played the most entertaining football last year and were a joy to watch. Their key player is Adam Stansfield and, if he's on form, they should do well."
Meanwhile the NLP reports that Terry Fearns may move from Southport. The striker who bagged 41 goals for his side last season is said to be wanted by Mark Wright at Peterborough. Fearns scored against Hereford United in the FA Cup last season.
