How Others see the Bulls

The News of the World has published their guide to League One for the coming season.

Not surprisingly they expect Leeds to finish in first place.

But their research may be flawed as this view of Hereford United shows:

HEREFORD

GRAHAM TURNER’S men have their work cut out to avoid an immediate return to League Two.

Last year’s loan stars Gary Hooper and Sherjill MacDonald have left but ex-Leeds man Simon Johnson has joined.

KEY MAN: Simon Johnson

SCORE PREDICTION: 21st

It gets worse. Here's what one of the Vital sites says:

23rd = Hereford United (66-1)

The Bulls will struggle and a return to League 2 at the first attempt will follow.

Admittedly this view was from Yeovil.

Finally this from the Northampton Rivals Site;

Last Season: Hereford were promoted in third place last season in League Two, punching well above their expected weight. Graham Turner did a magnificent job in charge at Edgar Street, a job made even more impressive by the fact that he had just fourteen professionals on the books at this stage last summer!

This Season: The season looks nothing short of a struggle for Hereford and they will have to get off to a good start if they are to stand any chance of falling behind the rest. Home form will be vital at the univiting Edgar Street, somewhere that the likes of Leeds and Leicester certainly won't feel comfortable!

Key Man: Matty Done

The former Wrexham midfielder, 19, signed for United this season and his pace and skill could be vital for his new side. Done came through the ranks at Wrexham but turned down a new contract at the Racecourse Ground to move into League One.
