We Can't Wait To Get Going Says Hale


Hereford FC chairman Jon Hale has spoken to the Non-League paper about the progress of the newly formed club which agreed a lease deal with the local council last Tuesday.

"There were a lot of rumours flying around and whilst we were confident we couldn't be sure.

"It's clear to see Herefordshire Council want football to continue at Edgar Street.

"The decision was all or nothing for us.

"Our whole proposal was built around the commercial opportunities at Edgar Street and it's a ground that matches our ambitions. The hard work starts here.

"We want as much of the flavour of Hereford United to come with us as possible.

"This is a continuation of the club's 90 year history and we can't wait to get going.

"We've budgeted very cautiously for around 800 people but we're very confident we'll see more than that.

"We've got a lot of business skills within the board and we are making sure we learn from what happened to Hereford United.

"HUST will eventually own 50% of the shares so we have a very strong bond and platform from which to build."
