Bulls look to correct home form

Hereford United entertain Scarborough tomorrow in a match which Graham Turner will want his team to put in a much better home performance after two defeats against Stevenage and Halifax respectively.

Last season Hereford defeated the Seadogs 2-1 in the corresponding game, one week earlier, with goals from Michael Rose and Paul Parry in front of 4850 spectators.

Nicky Henry is manager at the McCain Stadium this season, ably assisted by the 38 year-old Neil Redfern. Captain is 23 year-old Scott Kerr, who incidentally was subbed last week against Exeter. Henry himself was banned from the touchline near the end of that game for a difference of opinion with the fourth official.

Redfern could be a danger to the Bulls defence. An attacking midfielder, he has scored five goals in this campaign to date. He has plenty of experience as he spent time at several top clubs including Charlton who paid around £1m for his services from Barnsley. He joined the Seadogs at the start of the season.

Steve Barker, an ex-Middlesbrough centre half, is a doubt with an ankle injury that he picked up last week against Exeter City but at least the Bulls won't be facing giant defender Matt Redmile as he has left the Seadogs.

Hereford United will be without both Rob Purdie and Ryan Green tomorrow. Purdie is still suffering from several ailments and Green is said to have abdominal problems, although it is being suggested that it may be that he needs a hernia operation. Green is due to see a specialist shortly. Mark Robinson could be back in the side, and Tamika Mkandawire may also be back in contention as his hamstring injury is said to have improved although there is the possibility that he will be held unitil the Aldershot game next Tuesday. Adam Stansfield, who was subbed last Saturday, is also said to be available. Graham Hyde could also be back on the bench as he has recovered from his illness.

Please Note:Supporters are asked to try and have the correct change to speed up the process of getting into the ground.
