Next LDV game expected to be on December 20th

Hereford United will be in the draw for the Quarter Final of the LDV Northern Area which takes place on Saturday but won't receive any bonus from last night's win over Port Vale.

The prize money rules of the LDV are such that the defeated side picks up any prize money and Vale will receive £4,000 for their efforts.

The quarter finals operate in the same way. Should Hereford win, they receive nothing, but if defeated the Bulls will pick-up £6,000.

However defeated league clubs will receive £8,000 each.

The next round of the LDV is set to take place in the week commencing December 19th. Hereford's game will probably take place on the Tuesday but until the draw is made and the clubs confer that date can't be confirmed.

Meanwhile, according to the Official Port Vale Website, Martin Foyle the Valiant's manager, was disappointed with the result.

"It was certainly better than Saturday; there was a bit more passion and commitment there. When we actually got the ball down and played we looked a decent side, but at the moment there are quite a few lacking in confidence and I think it showed in our play again.

"Our play in the final third is letting us down again - we don't create enough chances. There are a lot of things wrong at the moment, I can understand everybody's frustration, but we have got a hard game against Southend coming up and we have got to go and battle.

"I knew it would be a hard game, they are a decent side and they don't give many goals away, but our forward play in that final third was poor and we gave the ball away too easily."
