Message for team before Barnet clash

Hereford United manager Graham Turner has sent a message to his side ahead of tomorrow's match at Barnet, kick off 3pm.

"We have to get something from the game, it's as simple as that," he told the Evening News. "But we have got to be confident. There are still eight games to go and there will be plenty of shock results between now and then."

Barnet beat Southport 3-1 on Tuesday night, and will pose a different threat than Scarborough, who were victorious over United 2-1 last Saturday. "Barnet are a totally different proposition to Scarborough who were much more direct," continued Turner. "Barnet get it down and like to play and are what I call a very sharp team. They've still got some good players and Underhill is a very nice playing surface so I expect a good game.

"There's a new man in charge and the change seemed to do them good in midweek so we'll need to put in a good performance of our own."

In terms of a new attacker, Turner is trying hard to find a player but has not been successful yet. "One or two players have been offered to us, but I didn't think they were capable of improving anything, so it's not worth taking them," he said. "If the right one comes along and we can improve things, then we'll jump in with both feet. But at the moment, we're still working at it."

Conference sides have until 5pm on Thursday to make any additions to the squad, before the transfer deadline takes effect.
