| Hereford went a goal down inside 90 seconds against Spennymoor Town |
Hereford's woeful start to games by going a goal down so early shows no signs of letting up as they have conceded inside five minutes in four of their last five games.
It's a trademark style that has plagued the Bulls all season. Twenty games into the season, Paul Caddis' side had conceded by the 17th minute an extraordinary seven times.
In 14 of their 36 league games so far this season, Hereford have conceded by the 21st minute - picking up just eight points from 42.
It's something new boss Aaron Downes has put down to a "psychological block", though twice under his reign, the side did come back to win games.
Here's a look at the matches where the Lilywhites are gifting their opponents an early goal and setting themselves up with an uphill battle:
