Guinan wants to stay at Edgar Street

Steve Guinan has told the Hereford Times that he wants to stay with Hereford United.

"I would love to stay at Hereford but contract talks have reached a stalemate," Guinan told Richard Prime, sports editor of the Hereford Times.

"With the pay cut I have been asked to take, considering that I did not get a rise to move up to League One last summer, it is just not practicable for me.

"I have a wife and two young children to support."

John Trewick, the Hereford United manager, is also quoted.

"Steve and I discussed a position as player-coach, but no agreement was reached.

"Now I am thinking about him in terms of a player only.

"The door is open, as it is with Ben Smith."
