Hereford defender Kyle Howkins was not included in today's squad against Chester. He has been ill but manager Paul Caddis hopes he will be back for next Saturday's game at Oxford City.
"We missed Kyle, he's been colossal for us," said Caddis.
"He's struggled with illness.
"I know myself, it's been going about.
"We gave him as late as we possibly could.
"He missed training on Thursday, I was in tough with him yesterday and then about 9 o'clock this morning I spoke to him but he was still struggling.
"So we had to make the decision that he would be unavailable.
"I'd like to think he'll be back for Oxford.
"I hope so, I hope he's not got anything long term, he's got a young kid whose had it as well. So we hope his family are safe and well.
"We hope he'll be back Tuesday (training)."
