Killer Instinct Missing Said Foyle

Martin Foyle Standing Next To The Hereford Dug-Out

Hereford United manager Martin Foyle felt it had been a 'very hard earned three points' at Macclesfield this afternoon.

"I though we started the game very brightly," Foyle told BBC Hereford and Worcester.

"Probably should have been three or four up by half-time.

"But today we didn't have that killer instinct that we probably had on Bank Holiday Monday.

"At 1-0 they still had a chance and we started to drop back a little bit.

"If we don't hold the ball up front, the ball is going to keep coming back.

"Second half we kept giving the ball away so they started coming at us and causing us problems. So I had to drop Ryan in there.

"Did they create much, not really except the one that hit the post and a couple of balls that dropped in the box.

"We defended well as a unit."

There were several chances created by the Bulls in the first half but only Sam Clucas's third minute effort went in.

"We had chance after chance, I can remember Stef, Josh, Sharp and Ryan but they haven't gone in.

"We know we have got players that are still learning the trade. Our job is to make them better."

Chris Bush With One Of His Long Throws

Chris Bush was subbed early in the second half. Joe Heath replaced him.

"Chris hasn't played a lot of football and he had a sore back as well.

"He was struggling a little bit."

The Bulls had to do a lot of defending as the game went on.

"I thought Luke and Stef won a lot of headers and crosses that came into the box and Bits took a few out of the air."
