Hereford United (H) League 1 Saturday 24/1/09.

Sun Jan 18, 2009 10:18 am

At last our first home game of 2009 and hopefuly with a new manager in place .

A look at our visitors recent league form.

Colchester - away - won 2-1
Hartlepool - home - drew 1-1
Huddersfield - away - lost 0-2
Tramere - home - drew 2-2
Leicester - away -lost 1-2
Oldham - home -won 5-0

Just 1 away win for Hereford this term , 1 draw and 10 defeats.
5 goals scored -25 against.

The Bulls sit 22nd in league 1- 20 points fronm 24 games .

Former Saddler Kris Taylor returns to Banks's Stadium for a game we simply have to win .

Prediction 2-0 to the Saddlers.

1-1

Deeney to fall over accidently scoring.

At first I had this down as a nice easy home game, but now, with our waferthin squad, and their 5-0 win yesterday, I aint so sure. Kris Taylor is going to want to win it for sure.

Thankfully Ricketts will be back, but without having played for nearly a month, he may be a tad rusty.

Hoping we can fluke a 2-0 win. Defeat and the place will go up.

Absolutely. However, with yesterday's team, or a similar one, little chance :( .

Mind you, the pattern of recent months seems to be a win every couple of defeats or so, therefore we may just sneak it.

I hope you're right. I'll be there to see the jubilation/car crash that is the full time whistle at The Banks's.

Well they have just stuffed Oldham 5-0 we don’t seem to be able to shoot at eh goal more than twice in a game. We were wide open yesterday at Posh so I can see nothing but a demoralising defeat for us unless Ince is in top form again. 0-3 to the Bulls.

Not good news as we slither towards the zone with Schofield in charge playing the 'youth' card......


I have noticed that, and it is why I think this season has the potential to replicate the farce that was 05-06. We NEED to win on Saturday.

Now that Uncle Jeff has implemented a policy of employing only staff who were here in the nineties, I expect the following line-up

Wood

Ntamark
Ryder
Methven
Statham

Marsh
Keister
O'Connor - player coach
Grealish

Macdonald R
Cecere

Hopefully all the players will put on a good performance to impress Hutchings. I could see a tight 2-1 win to us. Gerrard and Nicholls.

Ricketts came off in the reserves tuesday night as well, with a hamstring tweak. I'd have though weston, ricketts and deeney will be ok. Roberts & hughes are still a few weeks short. Probably better to get them fit for leeds & leicester. We've got 6 games in 3 weeks now, so we need some loans at some point i'd imagine.

Goodness me - a team of the Eighties would thrash a team of the Nineties!

Maybe that's an idea for a thread :D
