The Bulls travel to Somerset on Tuesday night to take on old foes Yeovil Town in a League One match.
It will be the Bulls' first League trip to Huish Park after several battles there in the FA Cup and Conference. The last trip there was in 2003 as the promotion bound Glovers hammered a nine-man Bulls side 4-0, with former Bulls - and current Bristol City trio - Chris Weale, Michael McIndoe, and Gavin Williams all in their side. Earlier this season Yeovil won 2-1 at Edgar Street, but that game will have little reflection on Tuesday. Only four players on each side that started that game started for their teams on Saturday.
With the fans in uproar against the board over the departure of Russell Slade, the team haven't reacted positively to the change. The four straight wins that ended the Slade era have been replaced with a solitary point from four attempts for new boss Terry Skiverton, with the team failing to score in three of the games. Top scorer Gavin Tomlin has seven goals this season and is just as often on the bench as in the starting XI, with his goals against Oldham in the last home match his first at Huish Park since the opening day of the season.
With Febian Brandy joining Man Utd teammate Sam Hewson as one of the four joint second top scorers with three each, he indicated a desire to remain at the club for the rest of the season. Winger Jennison Myrie-Williams is expected to have extended his loan deal after missing out in the loan player shuffle at the weekend. A win on Tuesday may take the Bulls level on points for safety, but it would take an unlikely hammering of Swindon by Cheltenham to put the Bulls into 20th place.
Yeovil Town vs Hereford United, Huish Park, Tuesday 3rd March, 7.45pm.
