Bulls News: Hereford in worst New Year National League North position ever

Hereford's starting XI at Merthyr on Tuesday

The National League North table does not make good reading for Hereford fans at present.

The Bulls are languishing in the relegation zone as 2025 draws to a close.

Despite picking up a point with a 2-2 draw at high-flying, free-scoring Merthyr Town on Tuesday evening, they dropped a place to 23rd.

That was because Alfreton Town, Saturday's opponents and fellow strugglers, beat the league's bottom side Leamington.

So as Hereford sit 23rd on 31st December 2025 with 21 points from 21 games, they sat 7th with 37 points from 23 games a year ago.

Looking back through the years, Hereford are in the worst position they have ever been in National League North heading into the New Year.

They are lower in the table, with fewer points and a lower points per game average than ever before.

23rd | 21 points from 21 games | Average 1 point per game

7th | 31 points from 23 games | Average 1.61 points per game

4th | 42 points from 25 games | Average 1.68 points per game

17th | 25 points from 21 games | Average 1.19 points per game

15th | 23 points from 17 games | Average 1.35 points per game

14th | 16 points from 11 games | Average 1.45 points per game

17th | 25 points from 23 games | Average 1.09 points per game

18th | 24 points from 22 games | Average 1.09 points per game
