Tamika pleased with goal

Tamika Mkandawire, speaking on BBC Hereford and Worcester after the game at Grays, said how pleased he was to be on the scoresheet.

"It's nice to chip in with the odd goal, but being 2-0 down and both me and Dean getting goals, really pleased with it," said the Hereford United defender and today's captain.

"Who ever would have scored the goal would have lifted the whole team.

"First half they did well to get two goals. We simply weren't good enough.

"Second half we really worked hard as a unit. Tried to limit their chances and really worked hard on getting back into the game.

"Great ball in from Alex (for the second goal). We debated whether it was an own goal or Deano's."

Three Hereford players were booked during the game - Jeannin, Beckwith and Mkandawire. And Guy Ipoua hobbled off during the first half.

Had the referee had a better view Gray's Aaron McLean would have been booked for inciting the Hereford United supporters with a Bull like gesture after he scored. In any case his goal probably shouldn't have been allowed as he looked to be offside.

Many of the 350 Hereford supporters (later said to be 369 according to Grays) were disappointed at the lack of room allowed for them this afternoon. They were cramped into a tiny part of the main stand, whilst the Grays supporters had both ends of the ground.
