It's not often Edgar Street sees two pantomime stars on the pitch at half-time but yesterday two of the stars of Sleeping Beauty took to the pitch for a kind of penalty shoot out with Edgar in goal.
The two stars arrived with their minder just before half time and were escorted onto the pitch by Hereford's Matchday Manager Jamie Griffiths.
Then joined by Edgar, they attempted a penalty shoot-out in front of the Meadow End many of whom were torn between going for a pint or watching these two clowning about.

Afterwards the two stars spoke to BN about what they were promoting.
"This is for The Courtyard Theatre Hereford's Panto this year. It's Sleeping Beauty," said Nancy.
"This is my lovely son Frankie.
"Hi everyone I'm Frankie and this is my mum Nancy.
"But you can call me Nance.
"It starts on the 25th of November until the 6th of January.
"Tickets are available but they are going quickly, so buy them now direct from the box office at the Courtyard."
Hereford manager Peter Beadle was giving his half-time talk to the players when these two were on the pitch so didn't see how much talent they had. Nancy, in particular, thinks she can score a few goals.
"I'm looking forward to signing up for Hereford. Johnny Mills can get out of the way because Nancy Sonata is coming!"
