Hyde set for first start
Hereford United travel to Hilton Park, home of Leigh RMI, tommorow afternoon, kick off 3 p.m. The Bulls have a good record there, winning all four of their last visits including a 5-0 drubbing at the end of last season. Other teams at the top of the Conference have difficult fixtures so if results went Hereford's way they could find themselves on level points with Barnet at the top.
Leigh hope to have ex-Shrewsbury Town centre back Gregor Rioch back in contention following a knee ligament injury that has kept him out of action for a month. He has only played twice for RMI since his move from Northwich.
"He's doing all the training now and hopefully he can get a reserve game and train again to be contention for the weekend," said Phil Starbuck. Martin Moran has mumps, Gary Williams is suffering with a thigh strain and Gareth Holmes has a cartilage problem so all three may miss out.
United have a few injury problems, tenacious midfielder Jamie Pitman has a back problem from Tuesday's game so Graham Hyde is set to deputise. Rob Purdie and Ryan Green are long term casualties but Tamika Mkandawire and Danny Carey-Bertram have both returned to full fitness. Neither team have any suspensions for the game.
Hereford have now hit a bit of form with three straight wins, but Graham Turner has warned his players not to get complacent. "If we focus, if we pay as much attention to the build up as we did against Aldershot and if the players have got the single mind about them that we need those three points, then we will come away with the three points," he said on BBC H&W.
"If there is any feeling that we have done the hard part in beating Aldershot, nine points out of nine, a great return and there's suddenly a relax in attitudes then we could come un-stuck."
The Railwaymen, currently twentieth in the league, haven't had the best of starts gaining six points from their first nine games. However, they have proved that they aren't always a walk over as Aldershot found out when they visited Hilton Park. The Shots had to score in the ninetieth minute and again in added time to claim a 3-3 draw with Leigh.
