Captain still can't believe it
Hereford United captian, Tony James, has admitted that he is still struggling to come to terms with the fact that the Bulls will be playing Conference football again next season, over a week since their defeat to Aldershot Town in the play-offs semi final.
"It's been a bit difficult but I've been keeping myself busy," he said. "We worked so hard to do it (get promoted) and then to get knocked out like that is a bit of a shock.
"We were unfortunate to have the play-off go to penalties where it is just a lottery," James told the Evening News. "For me personally it's going to take a while to get over. I really thought we would get promoted and I think everyone at the club thought we would."
The defender, who was the first player to sign a new contract for next season, is hoping that the majority of the players stick together and have another pop at the title next season.
"Now we have to wait and see what players come in and what players go," said James.
Meanwhile former Hereford United striker John Grant, currently at Telford, has been linked with a possible move to Exeter.
"John Grant is one player who has impressed me and Adam Stansfield (of Yeovil) is another." said Exeter boss Eamonn Dolan. " I am not in direct contact with any of them at the moment but obviously I have been putting the feelers out during the last few weeks."
