21st Position for the Bulls

First it was all gloom and doom from a Macclesfield site who suggested that the Bulls might finish the coming season in 19th position. Now a Lincoln site predicts the Bulls will end up in 21st place.

theimps.tk site does appear to bear the Bulls a slight grudge as it can't get over Lincoln City being defeated by the Bulls back on a cold and wet winter's evening in early 20007.

It's February 2007 and things are looking good at Sincil Bank....then came Hereford United and spanked City 4-1. The Imps haven't recovered since, but Hereford have gone up and come back since and Graham Turner has now taken a step back and will concentrate on just his Chairman role, leaving John Trewick a very risky appointment given that he has never managed a side permanently.

Hereford probably gained promotion a few years too early. Losing a whopping 30 games last season, easily the worst record in professional football last season, unsurprisingly saw them relegated.

Their dealings in the transfer market have actually been quite decent so far, and I am particularly impressed with the signing of Kenny Lunt from Sheffield Wednesday and he could easily turn out to be the best buy of the summer in the entire division. Also coming in is Leon Constantine, a man familiar to a lot of teams in the division and a player who usually scores a fair few goals.

I think that like quite a few teams in the division, Hereford are entering a stage of transition and although I don't think they'll go down, I can't really picture them being stable enough to enter midtable. Again, although I don't think they'll ever be in danger of relegation, I can't picture them finishing above 21st.


As a record Bulls News will publish a list of other sites predictions just before the start of the season.
