Rooney Instrumental In Bringing Munday To Hereford

 

Former Hereford assistant manager Adam Rooney played a large part in bringing young striker George Munday to Hereford.

Speaking after Tuesday's game against Leamington, Munday was asked how his move had come about.

"Adam Rooney actually," said Munday.

"He's been keeping tabs on me, he's been watching me since the start of the season.

"It was around August time I think, he knows one of the players at Cambridge, Korey Smith.

"Korey Smith kept telling me Hereford are interested but obviously it's so far for me, it's a lot of travelling, three hours to get here tonight.

"I said a full season of that would be difficult and a big risk.

"I went to Bedford and the opportunity came again and I spoke to Adam Rooney and he was really eager to get me on board.

"So I looked at this and thought the amount of games and the project and it's such a big club as well and playing in front of that many thousands.

"For me if it wasn't for the travel it would have been a no-brainer anyway.

"A big thank you to Adam Rooney for bringing me in and when I came in for the first few weeks he was really good with me as well.

"So I wish him all the best at Kings Lynn.

"That's how it came about."

Munday's first goal at Edgar Street was in front of the Meadow End.

"Scoring goals, there's no feeling like it in football especially for a striker.

"It's what you are judged on at the end of the day.

"To score in front of that many here is an incredible feeling.

"It makes me hungry to score more."
