Graham: Grant doesn't cover a club as substantial as ours

Hereford chairman Andrew Graham says that, although £36,000 is a welcome grant in the current climate, it does not cover a club as substantial as theirs.

The Bulls are one of five National League North and South clubs - along with Chester, Dulwich Hamlet, Maidstone and York - will receive the grant with the other clubs getting £30,000. However, the clubs in the National League will receive between £84,000 and £95,000 irrespective of what attendances they attract.

"The board are urgently assessing the ramifications to the Club," said the chairman.

 "Naturally £36,000 is a welcome grant in the current climate but it does not cover a Club as substantial as ours.  

"A board meeting has been convened to discuss the implications of this. We are disappointed at the lack of engagement for member clubs in the determination of grant allocations."
