Change of Accountants for Hereford United

Hereford United have confirmed that Thorne Widgery have been appointed as the club's accountants.

They replace Baker Tilly who have had the task for over ten years.

Whilst no reason has been advanced by the club for the decision to move, it is thought the change is part of chairman David Keyte's determination to use local business wherever possible.

Thorne Widgery is a local company based in Hereford, whereas Baker Tilly is now one of the largest firms of accountants in the UK with an office in Hereford.

It is hoped that the annual accounts will be released somewhat earlier this time around. They will cover the period to May 31st 2009, in essence the last season Graham Turner was in charge.

This should mean that the club's AGM will be held either in late January or early February.
