THROWBACK THURSDAY | Nottingham Forest 4-3 Hereford United - 11th September 1976

The first 30 minutes were the peak of Hereford United. The club had reached what is now the Championship, and  headed to the City Ground full of confidence with two wins, and a draw from the first three league games.

Hereford were 2-0 up against Forest, with goals from Dixie McNeil and Peter Spiring. The Bulls then collapsed to lose 4-3 and didn’t win again until mid November.
