Speaking after last night's game at Edgar Street, Telford manager Gavin Cowan thought his players looked wary.
Hereford won the game 1-0.
"I knew it was going to be a battle first and foremost.
“What I asked of the players they didn’t really go out and do. We looked very weary and tired.
"We had a lot of compliments for how fit we look for a part-time team, so I was surprised about that."
Did Cowan see defeat coming?
"Not really, I thought we had three very good chances.
“Maybe I have to take a bit of responsibility in terms of changing the team up, because they did look weary.”
