Beesley gets the winner

Mark Beesley scored the winning goal this afternoon, aided by a slight deflection from ex-Hereford United defender Chris Lane.

It must have been sweet to score against his old club, Chester, who released him earlier this season.

"It was nice to score against them," Beesley told BBC Hereford & Worcester. " It was a good performance today and hopefully it can continue on Thursday when we go to Aldershot. If we can win there and bring them back here and win again, then it will be on to Stoke."

"It's eleven on the bounce now so hopefully we can make it twelve, thirteen, fourteen. If we win fourteen on the bounce we will be all celebrating at Stoke."

There still seems to be some confusion over David Brown who was the only Bulls player to be booked today. He now has ten cards so may miss the play-off final assuming the Bulls get there. He was replaced by Beesley just after receiving his card.

Meanwhile, the Bulls tally of goals for the Conference season is 103. This means they go into the record book with Barnet as joint top scores in the Conference. The record of eleven wins in a row is also a record equalling that of Dagenham two seasons ago.

However, Steve Guinan missed today's match with a stiff neck so was unable to have a crack at becoming this season's top scorer in the Conference. Simon Travis also missed the game but both Rob Purdie and Tony James played for the full ninety minutes.
