Whilst losing to Shrewsbury Town was alwaya a possibility, what wasn't expected on Saturday was that the three teams at the foot of League Two would all win their matches and therefore put pressure on Hereford United to take all three points at Morecambe this afternoon.
The Bulls are in 20th position in the table with 47 points. Three points from the Globe Arena will, in all probability, be enough to remain in the League.
This Afternoon's Fixtures:
Barnet v Oxford Utd
Bradford v Aldershot
Burton Albion v Torquay
Chesterfield v Bury
Lincoln City v Cheltenham
Macclesfield v Southend
Morecambe v Hereford
Rotherham v Gillingham
Shrewsbury v Accrington Stanley
Stevenage v Port Vale
Stockport v Northampton
Wycombe v Crewe
The Bulls will have winger Steven Leslie available again this afternoon, but it's not certain whether central defender Stefan Stam will be fit enough to play. He has travelled to Lancashire with the rest of the squad but reportedly faces a late fitness test.
For those unable to be at the game which is the first for Hereford United at Morecambe's new stadium, there will be full commentary on BBC Hereford and Worcester's 94.7AM frequency with Keith Hall behind the microphone. The Bulls Player team will also be at the game.
