Gulliver was wanted by Darlington

Hereford United weren't the only club after Phil Gulliver pre-season. The Darlington manager, David Hogson, has said that he considered signing him in the summer.

Gulliver who comes from Barnard Castle left Rushden and Diamonds and joined Hereford where he has started just four of nine league games.

"I know Phil very well from his time at Middlesbrough and he's a local lad but he's not one that we're looking at the minute," said Hogson according to the Northern Echo.

"He is a player we thought about in the summer but Hereford United had been chasing him for a long time and offered him an unbelievable deal.

"That is not to say that we would not look at him in the future. He is very strong in the air and I can see him becoming a Neil Aspin or Steve Tutill-type player."
