After yesterday's home defeat next for Hereford is an away game at Leamington on New Years Day.
And if Hereford want to keep up their challenge for promotion this is a game they need to win.
"We've always bounced back fairly well," said manager Paul Caddis.
"We've got a really tough place with another really experienced manager at this level in Paul Holleran, someone I respect really highly.
"Leamington is a really tough place to go, it will be a different type of game.
"So we've just got to bounce back, absolutely we've got to bounce back.
"Again I won't over analyse, we've just lost to the best team in the league in my opinion.
"We've just got to pick ourselves up, get on with it and move on to New Years Day."
