The Adam Stansfield Stand

Former Hereford United striker Adam Stansfield is to have a stand named after him at the first club he played for.

An official opening of the stand at Elmore is to be organised shortly.

"We have done this to show respect to Adam and his family, not just for what he did as a player but all the other things he got involved in," said Elmore chairman Jed Hewitt.

"He was a fantastic player for us. But off the pitch whenever we called on him to do something he was always accommodating. Even after he left and went onto greater things he would come back and help as much as he could and he never forgot his roots.

"A lot of local players knew him and he obviously went on to achieve his goal. In doing so he set the standard for other people of what can be achieved if they work hard. Adam will never be forgotten here. It is something we have thought about doing for some time but we have been trying to find the right picture. It will be put up on the side of the stand so anyone walking towards it will be able to see it."
