Promotion For Merthyr Town


Merthyr Town, helped by several former Bulls, have been promoted to the Southern League after they put nine goals past Bishops Cleeve without reply this afternoon.

Hereford FC director George Webb tweeted:

'Big congratulations to @MerthyrTownFC   On promotion, well run club by great people.'

1534 watched the game.

The win puts Merthyr back where they were in 2010 before they were demoted with financial problems.

Meanwhile another former Bull is hoping for promotion.

Playing for Evostik League Newcastle Town ex-bull Danny Lloyd-Weston kept the promotion hopes up in the North Staffordshire derby versus Leek Town in their 1-0 win. 

Player of the 2013-2014 season for the Bulls, Lloyd-Weston was recently playing at Conference club Southport but due to a recent lack of appearances despite playing in crucial drawn games, he left the Sandgrounders by mutual consent. 

It's understood that there are a number of league and non-league clubs interested in his availability
