Lack Of Cutting Edge Costs Bulls said Foyle

Hereford United manager Martin Foyle felt that his squad had put in a 'very, very hard honest working performance' this afternoon against Kidderminster despite losing 1-0.

"I thought we did alright without having that cutting edge and that little bit of luck," Foyle told BBC Hereford and Worcester.

"Lewis (the Kidderminster keeper) got named man of the match and brought off three or four magnificent saves first half whereas Bitts didn't have a lot to do today.

"It was a poor goal, that's the only bad point today.

"We know how to defend corners, got the first ball but I can't remember much about how the ball dropped and who never reacted but it doesn't matter because it's in the back of the net. It gave them a life-line.

"I thought Clucs and Marley put some great corners and free-kicks in the first half but we couldn't get on the end of them."

Several Hereford players received knocks this afternoon.

"Four players are having stitches in the treatment room which isn't healthy.

"That tackle on Andy Gallinagh - I'm sorry I'm talking about the referee again, I thought he was way below the standard today.

"He's just run onto the ball, knocked it past him and the lad has taken him out.

"Studs up, he's got eight stitches in his foot.

"I'm not going to give the referee any recognition at all."

The transfer window opens on January 1st and Foyle can't wait although several of his injured players are improving.

"I just want to get to January 1st to freshen up a little which I feel is important.

"Curruthers is running, Marlon is running but if you haven't any games for a long period it's very hard just to turn it on."
