York defender Danny Parslow has told the Non-League Paper about Martin Foyle's impact on the Minstermen:
"When he came in we were really struggling for goals and with Martin being an ex-striker, he immediately sorted that out.
"And the next year he got us playing really attacking football. He was brilliant for the strikers and Richard Brodie will be the first to tell you how important Martin has been for him.
"But it was also his personality. From day one he was approachable and if you had anything on your mind he would listen and try to help."
Gateshead manager Ian Bogie, a former teammate of Foyle's at Port Vale, added to the cause: "I'm sure he's surprised that nobody gave him a chance sooner. He's got a network of contacts with players and managers. He'll bring a lot to the table for Hereford."
