On this day 21 years ago saw the biggest attendance of the 1998/1999 season at Edgar Street. The game is remembered for the hostile abuse that former Hereford player David Norton received. Especially during the 2nd half of the match. Along with Neil Grayson, John Brough and Richard Walker there were four ex Hereford players in the Cheltenham line up that afternoon.
I spoke to Norton two years ago who set the record straight on his Edgar Street departure.
