Before today's game Hereford were in 12th position in the table table. Tonight the Bull are 14th, five points below 7th placed Chorley.
So was today's defeat a set-back?
"It's not a big set-back is it," said manager Josh Gowling.
"We've dropped down one place but results have pretty much gone our way.
"So from my point of view, from where we were to where we are now is a different place.
"We are very disappointed because you win today and I think we would have been nine or tenth (eleventh - ed) two points off the play-offs.
"So yes for us it's frustrating because we've been on a good run.
"It was a good half performance but we need to be a bit more consistant.
"We need to strive here for consistancy because we can't just put 45 minutes in so it's important we get a bit more of an all round performance."
