First Twenty Minutes Important says Turner

In an interview earlier today with BBC Hereford and Worcester, Graham Turner has suggested that it will be important for the Bulls to keep their shape during the first twenty minutes of tomorrow's game.

"We've got to be solid; we haven't got to concede goals early on," said the Hereford United manager.

"We've got to set marker down in the first 20 minutes or so; that is looking to have a good shape to the side, and looking to be as sharp as they are - making sure that they don't dominate the game.

"If we can perform well, and we have that little bit of luck, then we're capable of beating them.

"We're only one division below them, but they are a big club; I think that it was only six years ago that they were in the semi-final of the Champions League.

"We realise the size of the club, but we bear in mind that they are only in the first division, and we try to keep the perspective on that.

"I think that, with this squad, they've managed to keep their feet on the floor; we've done the job so far - now we have to see if we can carry it out and have three victories in a week."
