Hereford FC Membership Details

This from Hereford FC:

Hereford FC can confirm that its successful membership scheme will again be running for 2026/27, with the money brought in going towards the playing budget.

The club is particularly delighted to announce that this year there is an extra special feature included with the membership, courtesy of stadium sponsor MandM.

MandM have generously agreed to offer all season ticket holders and membership card holders 12 months of their Unlimited Delivery membership for free (usually £9.99).

MandM’s Unlimited Delivery ensures free delivery on any purchases made via the MandM website or app for a whole 12 months. If you’re already paying for free delivery with MandM, they will add another 12 months to your current time period!

To claim the Unlimited Delivery offer from MandM, fans need to do the following:

• Purchase a Hereford FC 2026/27 Season Ticket or Official Membership.
• Create a free MandM account (if you haven’t already got one). Don’t sign up to the Unlimited Delivery at this stage.
• Complete this form, using the same email address as the free MandM account.
• Await confirmation from MandM that your Unlimited Membership is set up (this will be after July 31st 2026).

The scheme should be particularly attractive to non-season ticket holders and exiled fans who are keen to show their support for the club, even though they can’t attend every home game

The membership scheme is open to all Bulls supporters and should be particularly attractive to non-season ticket holders and exiled fans who are keen to show their support for the club, even though they are unable to attend every home game.

Many of the benefits of being a membership card holder mirror those enjoyed by season ticket holders, and over the course of a full season significant savings can be made for the £30 one-off annual membership price. The benefits in full are as follows:

• Membership card holders will join the second priority group for any all-ticket matches alongside HUST members, Junior Bulls and Squad Builder contributors.
• 10% off purchases in Addison’s Bar, Radford’s Bar (including the Fan Zone), the Executive Club and Hereford Hospitality Suite on matchdays by presenting card.
• 10% off purchases in the club shop.
• 10% off room hire for any private event held at Edgar Street.
• 12 months unlimited delivery on any purchases made from MandM.

It’s an additional way to support the club and has a real benefit in terms of saving money on a matchday or when buying items in the club shop

“The membership scheme has been really successful and we’d love to see it grow even bigger this year,” said Hereford FC Chairman Chris Ammonds.

“It’s an additional way for fans to support the club and it also has a real benefit in terms of saving money through drinks or food in the club bars on a matchday, or when buying items in the club shop.

“We also have a number of great function rooms at Edgar Street that are available for private hire, and the discount on offer when booking one of these is significant.

“With the addition of the new offer thanks to our stadium sponsors, MandM, we believe there are some great benefits for all supporters, so please do sign up if you can.”

National League Board Club Representatives

This from the National League:

The National League has confirmed three new appointments to its Board of Directors following the AGM, which was held earlier this month at Celtic Manor.

Mark Hammond (Hornchurch) and Stuart Robins (Yeovil Town) have each been elected for three-year terms, while Mike Coulson (Gateshead) returns to the Board, also for three years. They join Tim Murphy (Solihull Moors) and Joanie Roberts (Hereford), who have both been re-elected for further three-year terms.

Board members serve a standard three-year term, though their places are confirmed on a seasonal basis: because promotion and relegation move clubs between divisions each year, a member's term can sometimes be cut short.

The National League Board is elected to serve its member clubs and, above all, the supporters who are at the heart of the game. Club representation on the Board is drawn from across the competition, with two members connected to the National League North, two to the National League South and six to the National League – a structure designed to ensure fair representation and diversity of voice across all three divisions.

The full list of club representatives on the National League Board for the season ahead is as follows:

National League

Tim Murphy (Solihull Moors)
Tom Lawrence (Southend United)
Mike Coulson (Gateshead)
Martin Copus (Sutton United)
Mark Hammond (Hornchurch)
Stuart Robins (Yeovil Town)

National League North

David Johnston (Darlington)
Joanie Roberts (Hereford)

National League South

Simon Gardener (Farnborough)
Ben Hudson (Hampton & Richmond Borough)

Munday was excellent at Hereford

Brighton and Hove Albion have said George Munday had an excellent loan spell at Hereford.

The Premier League outfit, who aren't a popular club amongst Bulls fans given the nightmare end to the season in 1997, said they were pleased to confirm the signing of George Munday from Cambridge United on a two-year contract, for undisclosed terms.

The 19-year-old will join the men’s under-21s squad, who head into the new campaign as Premier League 2 champions.

Men’s under-21s head coach Shannon Ruth said: “George had an excellent second half of the season with Hereford, having previously made his professional debut for Cambridge United.

“We’re looking forward to bringing him into our environment and seeing his game continue to develop.”

The striker joined the U’s aged nine, progressing through their academy before making his first team debut in 2024.

After loans with St Ives Town and Bedford Town, he found his goalscoring touch with National League North Hereford last season, netting nine goals in 22 appearances.

The 19-year-old striker joined Cambridge’s academy at the age of nine and progressed through the ranks before signing his first professional contract last summer.

Munday spent part of last season on loan at Hereford, where he impressed in National League North and helped raise his profile ahead of a move to the Premier League club.

Cambridge United director of football Mark Bonner said Munday’s development and successful loan spell with the Bulls had attracted significant interest, with Brighton meeting the club’s valuation.

Bonner added that the transfer underlined the club’s commitment to developing and trading young talent as part of its long-term sustainability model.

Munday now takes the next step in his career with Brighton, while Cambridge have wished the teenager every success for the future.

NLN club admits signing players is 'tricky'

Aaron Skinner at Spennymoor Town last season

Spennymoor Town boss Tommy Miller says it has been a “little tricky” so far this summer as the club continues to work behind the scenes on recruitment for the 2026/27 National League North campaign.

In his latest update to supporters, Miller admitted the early stages of building the squad have been challenging, but insisted progress is being made as Moors look to strengthen key areas ahead of pre-season.

“It’s been a little tricky so far this summer, but the work continues behind the scenes,” he said, confirming the arrivals of Aiden Marsh, Louis Stephenson and Frankie Whelan.

Miller praised Marsh’s potential and believes the forward is at a key stage of his development. “Aiden has a good pedigree and he’s at a great age to really kick on in his career now,” he added.

He also highlighted the competitive nature of the transfer market at this level, with Spennymoor often in direct competition with several other clubs for the same targets.

“We’re speaking to players all the time, we’ve met with quite a few now and it’s just about trying to get the deals over the line,” Miller explained. “It can be quite challenging because if we’re in for them, there’s a chance there’s another three or four clubs in for them as well.”

Despite that, Miller stressed the importance of selling the club’s ambition and long-term stability in the division, where Moors have now been established for a decade.

“Our mission is to sell them the club and the ambition we have here,” he said, as he reiterated the aim of building a squad capable of challenging for the play-off places.

With pre-season fast approaching, Miller says attention is now turning to getting players back in and preparing properly for the new season ahead.

Tom Handley is leaving Merthyr

Worksop Town have strengthened their midfield with the signing of Sam Essien on a permanent deal ahead of the 2026/27 season. The 22-year-old joins after spells with FC Halifax Town, Boston United, Matlock Town and Ilkeston Town, gaining valuable experience across the non-league pyramid.

He also impressed during a loan at Golcar United, where he won Young Player of the Year. Essien made his senior debut at Halifax in 2021 and has steadily built a reputation for energy and work rate. Manager Craig Parry praised his “tough-tackling” style and athleticism in midfield.

Marine have appealed to fans to support defender Adam Anson, who is facing a spell on the sidelines with a hip condition requiring surgery. The club shared a message on social media asking supporters to get behind a crowdfunder set up to help cover the £8,000 operation needed to get him back to full fitness.

A separate fundraising page explains that without the procedure, Anson faces a long and uncertain recovery away from the game he loves.

Merthyr Town have confirmed that Tom Handley, a former Hartpury student, will depart the club after four memorable seasons, making 191 appearances, to take up an opportunity with a National League side.

Handley, who also captained the Martyrs at times, said it was “never easy to leave somewhere that has meant so much”, but feels the move is the right step for a new challenge. He thanked staff, teammates, volunteers and supporters for their backing, adding he is “proud to have worn the shirt” and be part of the club’s journey and success.

Radcliffe have strengthened their defence with the signing of experienced centre-back Tom Davies on a one-year deal with an option at the Neuven Stadium. The 34-year-old brings extensive Football League experience, with over 250 appearances for clubs including Fleetwood Town, Accrington Stanley and Portsmouth.

Davies also impressed during a loan spell at Chester last season, scoring three goals in 14 matches and helping secure five clean sheets, including a late winner against AFC Fylde. He said talks with the manager and positive feedback about the club made the move an easy decision, and he is now focused on helping Radcliffe push towards their aims for the 2026/27 campaign.
