10 Men Bulls keep Grecians at Bay

Hereford United confronted the pundits with a deserved 2-1 win over Exeter City last evening.

A goal from Guy Ipoua and a free kick from Alex Jeannin just before half-time sealed the points for the Bulls after Exeter City went ahead within five minutes of the start with a goal from Lee Phillips.

But a decision from the referee after Jeannin had scored will be debated for sometime.

Ipoua was sent off with a straight red card after the referee appeard to think he had made jestures to the Exeter fans following birthday-boy Jeannin's goal. However it was thought that Ipoua was simply pointing out to the home fans that their former player had scored.

Hereford defended stoutly throughout the second half with just ten men and the support of the 130 Bulls fans who had travelled to St James' Park.

Brian's considered report will appear later today.
