Hereford 29/10 To Win At Telford

Ryan McLean Scored For Hereford At Telford In 2022

 Hereford play their first game for ten days at Telford tomorrow evening, however the bookmakers feel they may return without any points.

Currently Hereford are 23rd whilst Telford are 9th. Obviously Hereford have only played 23 games whereas Telford have played 29. But Hereford have just 23 points whereas Telford have 44 points.

Last time out Hereford lost 2-1 at Curzon whilst after a good run Telford lost 3-1 at Worksop last Saturday. 

Telford's home record is won 7, drawn 3 and lost 3.

Hereford's away record is won 3, drawn 4 and lost 7.

Work Has Started On Hereford's Pitch

Work has started on the Edgar Street pitch. Picture: Adam Matravers

The work to repair a section of the Edgar Street pitch started this morning.

Pictures were shown on BBC Midlands Today of workmen lifting soil into a trailer.

General manager Jamie Griffiths spoke to the programme about the loss of fixtures because of the waterlogged pitch. 

  

Away! Hooray!

An away fixture then, whoopee, which means there will actually be a football match taking place on Tuesday night, rather than the now hauntingly familiar ‘P-P’ that follows ‘Hereford’ on the fixture list when they’re at home, as reliably as night follows day, depressing as it is for all concerned.

I don’t know whether Telford can accommodate 2,500 football-starved, rain-drenched away supporters, but presumably the absence of any recent football at Edgar Street will swell the occupation of the away end, second-bottom of the table or not.

Having opened this preview with a bit of positivity, one note of caution should be added as a women’s match was called off at the New Bucks Head on Sunday because of waterlogging, so the surface could be heavy.

A timely and transparent fans forum on Saturday provided a much-needed comms boost and conspiracy theory quashing exercise. Chairman Chris Ammonds suggested that some older and more experienced new arrivals may be on the way to complement the recent influx of youth on loan from Premier League clubs, although whether that will be in time for this game remains to be seen.

The pitch situation is now making the national media, and it was thoroughly discombobulating to suddenly hear Jamie Griffiths’ dulcet tones on BBC Radio 4’s six o’clock news as one of the main stories.

The Bucks have been flying under Kevin Wilkin, a manager who is demonstrating that he can walk the walk at this level even without the funding he got at Brackley. They’ve won seven of their last nine league games, although they unexpectedly slipped up against Worksop at the weekend, losing 3-1 in a game they actually dominated for large periods.

Telford should have won at Edgar Street earlier in the season, and could comfortably have been out of sight at half-time. Ex-Bull Jordan Cranston was somehow able to control the whole game from left back, rampaging up the line like Paolo Maldini on steroids. Alarm bells rang. Concern was expressed. It looked bad, and it has indeed proved to be bad, when multiple games not played are at least multiple games not lost.

Telford can rely on the goals of ex-Halifax striker Matty Stenson, now in his second spell at the Bucks Head. He scored 32 in the Southern League for them last season, and has 14 in 23 league games this time. He has the physique and demeanour of the archetypal NLN centre forward. I don’t mean that dismissively – Hereford don’t have that sort of player on their books, and arguably never truly have had in the HFC era.

Andy Williams has often cut a dejected figure this season, possibly realising that he’s not going to get the service he expects, whereas Stenson, who hasn’t had quite the career Willo’s had, knows the sort of service he’s going to get and makes the most of it. Having said that I seem to remember Willo gesticulating similarly when he had magicians like Ben Smith behind him.

It’s arguably a good time to attract a striker from higher up the pyramid not currently getting a game, maybe feeling like their time might be up at their current club, perhaps out of contract at the end of the season. With the unusual attraction in mid-February of a 20-odd game mini-season to go nuts with goals, get noticed in doing so, and relaunch their career, it could be tempting to give it a go. Someone like a 2026 version of The Shop. It would presumably cost somewhere not too far shy of £50k and would in no way represent long-term sustainable squad planning, but short-term emergency fixes are probably now where we’re at.

In terms of the ongoing conversations around part-time, full-time and hybrid models, nothing seems to trump running at a £1m loss each season knowing that the loss will be underwritten by an ‘investor’ whose business instincts go out of the window when the heavenly prospect of Wealdstone away next season is just one expensive 20-goal-a-season striker signing away from becoming a reality. However, Merthyr and indeed Telford are demonstrating that it’s still possible to compete with the sugar daddy clubs, so it should be possible for Hereford too, although not this season. Hopes will rest solely on staying in the division.

Cormac Daly will give the Telford defence huge cause for concern here, and has the footballing ability and brain to link up with Willo’s. It’s difficult to piece together much else to write about because everything is currently so chaotic, so if it clicks it’ll probably be more by accident than design, like a Hurricane Higgins break, but clicking could mean three points, and points are badly, badly needed; also, Hurricane Higgins breaks were always exciting.

Next time I’m going to try to make something up about Chappell Roan to make my cultural reference points a bit more contemporary than a snooker player from 50 years ago.

New date for Fylde game

A new date has been agreed for Hereford's home match against AFC Fylde.

It was postponed last Saturday due to a waterlogged pitch. It will now be played on Tuesday, March 17.

What it means is that Hereford may have to play Marine twice in April. 

Telford Confident Hereford Game Will Go Ahead

AFC Telford have released a statement about their pitch ahead of tomorrow's game against Hereford:

AFC Telford United can confirm that tomorrow’s Enterprise National League North fixture against Hereford FC at the SEAH Stadium is currently scheduled to go ahead as planned. 

Following speculation online regarding the status of the game, the club would like to reassure supporters that the pitch is in good condition. 

After a dry day yesterday, the surface remains in good stead and, at this stage, no pitch inspection is planned. 

 Club staff are confident that conditions are suitable for the fixture to take place, and preparations continue as normal ahead of matchday. 

Supporters are advised that, should there be any change to the situation, official updates will be communicated promptly via the club website and social media channels. 

We look forward to welcoming Hereford FC and seeing supporters at the SEAH Stadium tomorrow. 

Hereford Women Draw At Pegasus

Despite being 2-0 down at the break, Hereford Women drew 2-2 with Pegasus this evening.

AFC Telford's pitch is currently "unplayable" - two days before Hereford go there.

Wolves Women were due to play there today (Sunday) against Rugby Borough.

However, they posted that the pitch was unplayable due to recent heavy rain.

It may be that Telford want to protect the pitch ahead of Tuesday's game against Hereford, with a decent attendance expected.

The forecast for the rest of today and tomorrow (Monday) doesn't look too bad, with not much rain expected. Likewise, the only rain forecast for Tuesday is during the evening. 

 

Hereford Women At Pegasus Today

 

Hereford Women have an away League game at Hereford Pegasus this afternoon.

Pegasus have a 4G pitch so the match should go ahead. 

Please note kick-off is at 5pm. 

Reserves Will Cover Drainage Work Said Ammonds

During the Hereford chairman Chris Ammonds's post forum interview with BBC Hereford and Worcester, mention was made of the finances at the club given the work required to improve the drainage on the pitch and the costs of having to play games elsewhere if need be.

"The big lesson for me, and should be for many others, is that things that have gone on this year that are out of our control in terms of the pitch is why you need to make sure that you have a solid bank of reserves tucked away," said Ammonds.

"The vast majority of the work that's going, hopefully we will be able to get some support grant funding for it, that's normally up to 70% so we've still got 30% to find.

"Because of the hard work that's been done over the past two years by lots of people we do have adequate reserves for a business of our size so we are not under any pressure like we may have been in the past." 

Pegasus Offered To Help Hereford

 

Neighbours Hereford Pegasus have offered Hereford FC the use of their ground.

This from Pegasus:

Following the Hereford FC announcement that they may need to play some home games away from Edgar Street, a number of supporters have suggested our ground. 

We can confirm that we had already offered Hereford FC the use of our facilities. 

Unfortunately, however, neither our ground nor any other ground within Hereford currently meets National League requirements.  

Ammonds Pleased With Fans Forum

After this afternoon's fans forum Hereford Chairman Chris Ammonds spoke to Trevor Owens for BBC Hereford and Worcester.

Owens suggested it had been a very respectful meeting given both the on and off pitch problems.

"I didn't really expect anything different," said Ammonds.

"I said at the start you might not like what I say or you might not agree with what I say but I will try and give you as honest an answer as I can.

"Some really, really good questions, some perfectly understandable questions given our current position.

"I was really pleased with it.

"Hopefully people have gone away, again they might not agree with things I said or things that we are doing but they go away at least thinking we know how things are, that's all you co do.

"The whole thing is complex, clearly it's stemming from an issue with our pitch and us having to look at options elsewhere.

"Ideally we won't play any games away from Edgar Street but the National League want to be reassured that we have got contingency plans in place.

"But we can't talk about it until we have things almost set in stone and it's got to be agreed with the National League first.

"Our dream is not to play any games away from here if we can avoid it but we have got to be realistic given the fact that it doesn't look that it's ever going to stop raining. 

"In an ideal world they will be as close to Hereford as possible but other clubs have games to play themselves, there are ground sharing agreements already in place at other clubs.

"If we go to a lower ranked club it's complicated because in theory our games should take priority but if you were that team are you going to give up your home game for one of ours.

"But I want to reiterate again we don't want to play any games away from here." 

Report From Fans Forum

A close to full house in Radfords for this afternoon's Fans Forum.

Chairman Chris Ammonds and General Manager Jamie Griffiths were on the top table.

In essence little new news, more a detailed look at the current problems facing the club both on and off the pitch.

Ammonds explained what the club were doing about the pitch.

Next week a section of the playing surface in the Len Weston/Meadow End corner is to be completely replaced. It's the wettest area of the pitch.

A specialist contractor is due on Monday to come in and firstly strip away the surface and the soil underneath. Then gravel, 'dry' soil and turf will be instated. Hopefully this will cure the problem.

The chairman then spoke about what the club were doing to get games played. A plan to use other grounds is about to be submitted to the National League. He could not confirm any details until the plan was approved.

However he hoped that the pitch work described above will allow games to take place again on Edgar Street as soon as possible.

The club would lose a lot of income each time a game was played elsewhere, sometime the club are hoping to avoid.

Turning to the position (23rd) Hereford find themselves in the League, Ammonds felt that the club could get out of the relegation zone.

He was hopeful manager Paul Caddis would bring in a few more players to boost the squad. But he didn't have any information on any new players. 

The club had tried to bring players in but, for one reason or another, players they had enquired about had gone elsewhere or in two particular cases stayed with their current club.

Caddis was not at the forum as he was at a training session. 

A number of questions from the floor which the Chairman answered including one about the finances and could more money be invested in the club. 

With agreement from the shareholders the capital in the club could be increased to £1M. it is currently just under £600,000.

The meeting was reminded that not long ago the club had just £5K but since Ammonds has been chair the reserves have increased. 

The meeting lasted for over 90 minutes. 

Edwards links up with Brakes

I-Lani Edwards has joined Leamington on loan for an initial month. 

The Aston Villa prodigy was with Hereford earlier this season, playing 22 games for the Bulls.

He was named in Leamington's squad today and came off the bench during a 0-0 home draw against Oxford.

"I'm really happy to be here," said Edwards. 

"There are a lot of games coming up so I'm excited to get going and make an impact."

On This Day In 2002

A look back to Saturday 7th February 2002.

Burton brew up United downfall

Hereford United 1 - 2 Burton Albion

Hereford United's automatic promotion aspirations were dealt another blow as they went down to their third home defeat of the season, losing 2-1 at Edgar Street against Nigel Clough's Burton Albion.

Burton hammered Hereford 4-1 at Eton Park back in September, and have now 'done the double' over a Hereford side unable to break through a strong back-line in difficult cold and windy conditions.

An eventful first half saw both sides look as if they could dominate the game. Rob Purdie broke well in the fourth minute for Steve Guinan to shoot, but the ball was deflected wide, and two minutes later a shot at the other end saw Matt Baker get down low to keep the ball out.

Another good team move for Hereford saw Guinan played in again, but Burton stopper Matt Duke saved with his legs, and David Brown turned well in twelve minutes from inside the D to drive a ball through the defence and onto the post, but it bounced behind for a goal-kick.

Three minutes later, though, Hereford took the lead. Guinan was clipped from behind in the box when through on goal, toppling him, and Tony James' spot-kick went low past Duke to open the scoring.

Burton, though, were not about to lie down, and capitalised on a defensive mix-up on twenty-seven minutes when Tony James and Matt Baker hesitated over a loose ball. Debutant Andy White nipped through to level proceedings as he walked the ball into the net.

United could have gone back in front later in the half, but Danny Williams' shot was blocked by a dominant Duke when one-on-one.

The second half wasn't quite as action-packed, but notable nonetheless. Eleven minutes after the restart, Robbie Talbot, who scored a hatrick against the Bulls back in September, put Burton into the ascendancy when he chipped Matt Baker from the right channel, and from then on, Hereford couldn't get past the Brewers' back-line.

Hereford were dealt another blow when Ryan Green was brought off injured, and then couldn't find a way back. Steve Guinan's low effort caused no problems for Duke, while substitute Mark Beesley fired just wide from the edge of the area. Ben Smith's late volley also went just over, but United were not to find a way through.

Three points lost

Hereford United lost 2-1 at home against Burton this afternoon. Tony James put the Bulls in the lead with a penalty but Burton hit back with a goal in each half.
 

Leaders Chester just managed to defeat Farnborough 3-2 and so go further ahead of the Bulls who remain in second position in the league.

Ryan Green went off injuried in the second half and later Jamie Pitman told BBC Hereford and Worcester about his problem.

"He's pulled a muscle in his hip. It will need to be accessed in a few days to see how he is."

Of the game, Pitman added: "They managed to score twice for our own deficiencies. We'll keep battling and will do as best we can to put it right on the training ground.

"We conceded two bad goals but played excellently in the first half. It wasn't a particularly bad performance but we've just got to learn by those mistakes and start a run of wins. We understand that it's frustrating for the fans, but they've seen some very good football this year. We're still second, and Chester could have a rough patch, so we need to keep a consistent run going."

After the game Graham Turner, the Hereford United manager, remarked: "We just didn't defend well and we can't keep conceding goals like we are and hope to win games."

 

Full list - all of Hereford's postponed games this season

Drone footage showing the state of the Edgar Street pitch. Picture: Your Herefordshire

Unbelievably, Hereford had had 14 games called off this season - with 10 due to the weather.

The first postponement was on October 11 due to their opponents, Macclesfield being in the FA Cup. However, the rearranged game at Edgar Street was called off the following month due to a waterlogged pitch. 

And the postponements just kept on coming. In total, six Bulls matches have been called off at home due to waterlogged pitches, four in the past two weeks. There have also been three away postponements, with three of them being at Scarborough.

The scheduled home game against Peterborough Sports on December 6 was also switched due to ongoing issues at Edgar Street.

Below is the full list of postponed games. It includes the upcoming game at Marine at the end of the month. 

11/10/25: Macclesfield (h) - due to Macclesfield being in the FA Cup

11/11/25: Macclesfield (h) - waterlogged pitch

White joins National League North rivals

Jaiden White has joined Chester on loan from Sutton until the end of the season.

White returned to Hereford for a second loan stint in November before returning back to Sutton last month.

Hereford are due to host Chester on February 24.

Hereford Chairman Comments On Another Postponement

 

Hereford chairman Chris Ammonds has commented about tomorrow's home game against AFC Fylde being postponed.

“We are obviously gutted to lose another home game and everyone at the club shares the frustration being felt by supporters," said Ammonds.

“Sadly, the rain that has fallen consistently for the past few weeks has, in the end, given us no chance of getting recent games on, despite the best efforts of our Groundsman, Ben Bowen. On behalf of everyone who cares about Hereford FC, I’d like to thank Ben for continuing to go above and beyond in terms of the hours he puts in at the MandM Edgar Street Stadium.

“To provide an update on contingency plans for future fixtures, I can reassure supporters that we have been in discussions with the National League for the past couple of weeks and I’d like to thank League officials for the understanding we have been shown.

“While we are aiming to provide a definitive update on our plans early next week, the situation is complex which is why we have not wanted to say anything publicly too early. The last thing we want to do is cause further frustration or confusion by providing an update before contingency plans are completely finalised.

“With that in mind, I’d like to thank Bulls fans for their ongoing patience and support. This is a situation that none of us want to be in, but the problems with the pitch drainage could not have been predicted, regardless of any impact caused by the floodlight installation project. The wider issue with the drains was completely unexpected and unfortunately it has been magnified by one of the wettest Winters on record.

“I would also want to take a second to thank all the staff and volunteers who continue to make such a vital contribution to our club. They have been working tirelessly to help us get through the ongoing issues and I truly hope that in the near future that hard work will be rewarded.”

Tomorrow's Match Postponed.

Tomorrow's match between Hereford and  AFC Fylde has been postponed.

As usual recently the reason is that the pitch is water- logged.

Supporters are reminded that despite the game being off a Fans Forum is set to take place tomorrow at 12.30pm.

Timeline - 10 months of woe for Hereford

Hereford manager Paul Caddis saw his side narrowly miss out on the play-offs in his first two seasons. But this campaign has been disastrous both on and off the pitch. 

Hereford FC have had their worst season since forming 11 years ago.

Whether it's being stuck near the foot of the table or issues with the pitch, this campaign has been disastrous. However, you could say that the issues began even before the season got underway.

Here, we take a look back to the past 10 months.

26/04/25

After looking like they might finish in the play-offs, Hereford were first thrashed at Kidderminster then put in a limp performance on the final day at home to Scunthorpe to miss out. 

04/06/26

Season tickets go on sale, but could they have been released earlier? 

w/c 09/06/25

The squad builder is launched with the founding shareholders agreeing to match the donations. Likewise, could this have happened sooner? 

Installation work also started on the new floodlights. It was initially due to take place the previous October but poor weather and high water levels meant it was put back. Could the drainage have been properly looked at then? 

19/06/25

Yusifu Ceesay announces he is leaving Hereford, joining the likes of Jason Cowley, Alex Babos, Sammy Robinson and Jaiden White in departing the club. 

24/06/25

Tate Campbell also leaves, joining Robinson at Buxton.

21/07/25

The club confirm that the home friendly against Leicester U21s - scheduled for the 26th - won't be going ahead due to a section of the Edgar Street pitch being damaged. It was caused by heavy machinery during the flood installation work.

02/08/25

Hereford lose their final pre-season friendly to a Chippenham side who are currently bottom of National League South. The Bulls only beat Wellington and Sporting Club Inkberrow in pre-season.

09/08/25

The 2025/26 season gets underway with a trip to Spennymoor. However, it's the first of four defeats in August, including a 4-1 home loss to Chorley.

26/08/25

Just weeks into the season, new signings Chris Wreh and Kai Williams are shipped out.  

13/09/25

An FA Cup second qualifying round match at Sporting Khalsa was abandoned after reports that home keeper Ravan Constable was racially abused. Hereford were leading 2-1 at the time.

30/09/25

Hereford won the rearranged game at Khalsa, but after drawing at Hemel Hempstead in the next round sustained a humbling 3-0 defeat in the replay.

04/11/25

Another humbling 3-0 defeat, this time in the league at struggling Oxford City.

08/11/25

Hereford lose at home to Southport, another struggling side. That's despite them being reduced to 10 men. 

11/11/25

A rescheduled match against Macclesfield is postponed due to a waterlogged pitch.

29/11/25

Another postponed match, this time against Marine. 

02/12/25

Hereford confirm that, due to ongoing issues with the Edgar Street pitch, the upcoming game against Peterborough Sports will be switched and played at PIMS Park. The 2-0 win there was Hereford's last in the league.

26/12/25

Kidderminster win at Edgar Street at Boxing for the second successive year. Remarkably, it was Hereford's last home league game.

30/12/25

Manager Paul Caddis confirms that Sam Osborne, who joined on a season long loan, will be returning to Alfreton. 

01/01/26

After not playing for Hereford for weeks, Omari Sterling-James joins Hednesford for an undisclosed fee, with reports he "wanted to get out of Hereford."

05/01/26

It's not just at home where Hereford have had games called off. Poor weather conditions sees the Bulls' away match at Scarborough postponed for the third time.

22/01/26

The club is engulfed in another racism row. Hereford supporter KD Rai said he was no longer going to games due to racist chanting he heard at Merthyr at the end of last year.

27/01/26

Storm Candra sees Hereford's home game against Oxford called off, the second postponement in three days.

30/01/26

Hereford confirm that Remaye Campbell will be joining Hemel Hempstead for an undisclosed fee.

31/01/26

Hereford lose 2-1 at Curzon Ashton. The hosts went into the game having recently been thumped 8-0 at home at Telford and losing to bottom club, Leamington.

03/02/26

The home match against Marine is again postponed. Footage shows that there is a real issue in the corner of the pitch by the Meadow End/Len Weston Stand with the club saying they've tried everything to get it sorted. Other games go ahead, and Hereford are now eight points from safety with six games in hand.

05/02/26

Hereford confirm there will be a 2pm inspection the next day ahead of the home match with Fylde on Saturday. However, it looks increasingly likely it'll result in another game being called off. 

Fans Forum on Saturday

There will be a fan's forum in Radford's Bar on Saturday regardless whether or not the Hereford versus AFC Fylde match goes ahead.

Club Chairman Chris Ammonds and General Manager Jamie Griffiths will be in attendance, with the forum starting at 12.30pm. 

 

The forum will have updates from the club including news about 'contingency planning'.

 

Supporters will be able to ask questions on matters both on and off the pitch. 

 

 

Pitch inspection tomorrow

There will be a pitch inspection at 2pm tomorrow ahead of Hereford's match against Fylde on Saturday.

Given the problematic areas that have caused the club all sorts of problems and the amount of rain there has been - with more forecast - the likely outcome will be another postponement. 

News Round Up

Lots of rain in Herefordshire this morning. Given the forecast there's not a chance that Saturday's game between Hereford and AFC Fylde will go ahead.

There is speculation that Man Utd might make a offer for Jarrod Bowen, the former Hereford United youngster, in the summer. More likely if West Ham are relegated.

Hereford supporter Leon Cooke was in court yesterday. He pleaded not guilty to one charge of using threatening, abusive, insulting words or behaviour at a home match on November 8th. A trial date has been set for August 24th. 

Former Hereford loanee Dylan Mitchell has joined Leamington on loan from Swindon until the end of the season.
