Documents seen by the Hereford Times suggest that the long term future of Edgar Street is in some doubt.
The Herefordshire Council's cabinet is set to discuss leasing the ground to a new tenant next Thursday.
The documents say that any re-location of the ground would require "significant consultation and evaluation
before any decision is contemplated".
"The issue of the vacant ground has generated significant public interest which will lead to pressure upon the council to secure a new tenant at the earliest reasonable opportunity.
"There is likely to be intense public scrutiny of any decision and therefore a transparent and open process of attracting a new tenant will be essential.
"It is proposed that a two stage process is adopted, with the grant of an initial short term lease to enable a potential tenant to comply with football league requirements.
"The potential for a further lease will be considered once the long term future of the site has been determined.
Whilst acknowledging that there is a 'strong body of support' for Edgar Street to remain, the document says the future may not be secure
"Consideration should be given to the longer term vision for the site within the context of the wider development proposals for the Edgar Street Grid area."
