Plenty Of Appetite For Football


Hereford FC vice-chairman Chris Williams is pleased with how the Stadium looks.

"It's all the volunteers, it's all the people who have put the effort in to try and make the stadium what it is," Williams told BN.

"Edgar Street has got a lot of character, a lot of people love to come and play here and it's got that old feel back.

"When I came in two months ago and it was so depressing but now thanks to the efforts of all those people particularily traders who have given us materials, given their time, helped us to do it.

"It all shows the appetite is there."

It was pointed out to Williams that the club has spent a lot of money on a ground which, currently, only has a five year lease.

"Five year initial lease that's the way I look at it.

"When they see what we're doing I don't think they will be able to resist our plans to develope the club.

"Whilst in five years if we got promoted every year we would be back in the Conference that isn't going to happen.

"But realistically if we could get a couple of promotions, demonstrate the attitude here that we are doing things correctly, that's what we're aiming to do.

"That's the philosophy of the board. We are not cutting corners, we are doing everything the way it should be done."
