Conference Cup game next Tuesday
Hereford United has confirmed that the third round Conference Cup game with Burton Albion will take place next Tuesday at 7.45pm.
Originally the game was to be played on Jauuary 25th but has been moved as Hereford's LDV game with Wrexham arranged for that evening takes precedence.
It is understood that there will be no HUISA transport to the game. This decision probably shows that the club has little interest in this cup game.
The decision to play the game next Tuesday was agreed late yesterday afternoon. Bringing forward the game will help prevent a build-up of fixtures. Only the date of the Hereford Cup game with Kington Town at Edgar Street remains unknown.
It looks as though Burton will use the game as a training match as their manager Nigel Clough told the Burton News and Mail that he had several players not yet match fit.
"We were looking to arrange a friendly for next week because we have quite a few players coming back from injury and illness who need a game.
"We're delighted that Hereford have taken the same view as us and agreed to bring the League Cup game forward rather than leave it until after the original date.
