Todd had Fitness Issues says Peters

Director of Football at Edgar Street Gary Peters has told the Hereford Times that the club decided to part company with veteran defender Andy Todd as he had 'fitness issues'.

"We see training every day and you can't have people playing on a Saturday, but not training during the week," said Peters.

"We need a group of fit athletes and we need players to be fit all of the time or most of the time.

"You can’t make the back four stronger, or put things in place to make the team stronger, if people aren’t at training.

"We have to become better and have to be training with everyone for as long as we can.

"Everyone would have seen how well Todd played against Barnet and Bradford.

"But we didn’t think that was the case in the away matches against Northampton and Torquay."

Also in the article Peters confirms Janos Kovacs 'has pretty much left the club now', however Sean Canham 'might be coming back to us' after his loanspell ends at Bath next month.
