Tough three games ahead for Turner

As far as the Hereford United manager, Graham Turner, is concerned the Bulls next three League matches should give him a fair idea of what the season holds and none of them will be that easy.

"We'll have a clearer picture of our promotion or play-off credentials after these next three games," Turner told BBC Hereford and Worcester.

"Brentford are a big club by second division standards; they'll have been stung by two home defeats this last weekend, so we can expect a backlash from them.

"Then we got to Chester who are going well; that's never and easy place to go – then we have MK Dons here, and they are the league leaders at this stage.

"They've got some useful players, Brentford; we've had them watched in the two home matches and there are certain threats in there.

"The biggest fear for me is a backlash from their two defeats; they might come here and defend in numbers and make it difficult for us – we expect that.

"Terry Butcher – their manager – has been around a long time, so it's going to be a difficult game."

As ever BBC Hereford and Worcester will be covering the game. Keith Hall will be their reporter at Edgar Street tomorrow.
