Turner says it's going well

Graham Turner, the Hereford United manager, seems very pleased with the attitudes of his players going into the Christmas period.

Speaking to BBC Hereford and Worcester yesterday, Turner revealed that he thought the victory over Scunthorpe had put his side in good shape for Monday's game at Forest Green.

"You can really sense a spring amongst the players that it's going well. We're playing well and the confidence is soaring."

Turner also said that the squad planned to train over the Christmas period, including Christmas Day morning.

As suggested yesterday on Bulls News Tony James is unlikely to feature on Monday. It is reported that he has a groin problem. Darren Blewitt could take his place but this is not confirmed.

Turner also spoke about the prospects for the rest of the season.

"There isn't an outstanding side in the Conference this season that will run away with it. So with everybody capable of taking points off the other sides, it's all to play for.

"I think we are just beginning to get into our stride and if we are more than a match for anybody, I can see us getting at least into the playoff places."
