Bulls Win At Frome


Captain Brad-Lee Gasgoigne Leading Out The Hereford Team
Hereford United defeated Frome Town 3-1 this afternoon at the Blindmans Brewery Stadium.

Manager Jon Taylor made one chance bringing in loanee Joshua Yorweth at right back in place of Obi Onyeike who was dropped to the bench. Dan Sullivan was also on the bench after being cup-tied and another loanee from Cardiff Bradley Williams also came into the squad.

Former Hereford United youth player Dylan Bonella was on the bench for Frome.

Not for the first time this season there appeared to be some sort of a problem with the Hereford kit as the numbers of the back of several players didn't correspond with the team sheet and when Yafai went off Sullivan, who took his place, was wearing a shirt with the same number on it.

Later when Bobes-Gilroy was replaced by Bradley Williams the announcer said "Hereford substitution with number 8 Gilroy replaced by ummm number 8 who could be anyone" 

Frome took the lead with just a minute gone after a mix up between keeper Williams and Yorweth. Lewis Haldane made no mistake from about 15 yards.

Injury To Yafai
Hereford were in more trouble ten minutes later when Bilal Yafai received a knock to his ankle. Initially he played on but soon had to leave the field. Dan Sullivan took his place.

Then Javia Roberts netted after a free-kick but it was ruled off-side.

Joshua Yorweth Getting Past Several Defenders Before Scoring
On 22 minutes the scores were levelled when a Yorweth strike from 18 yards flew past keeper Darren Chitty.

Dan Sullivan With A Chance
Minutes before half-time Sullivan had a chance to put the Bulls head but his shot went a yard or so wide.

More injury problems for Hereford just before the break when Roberts was replaced by Amick Ciani.

Hereford played down the slight slope for the second half but it took nearly 40 minutes before they went ahead.

In the meantime Bradley Williams replaced Sam Bobes-Gilroy.

Serge Mor Diop - Pictured Early In The Game
On 84 minutes Hereford took the lead when top scorer Serge Mor Diop was in the right place at the right time when a ball fell to him with only the keeper to beat. The big French striker has now scored eight goals in the teams last five games.

One minute later it was 3-1 to Hereford.

Mor Diop passed the ball to Sullivan who then scored a with shot from well outside the box.

Hereford are now in 10th position in the table with 29 points from 22 games.

Attendance was 265 with around 50 following the away side. However there was no sign of either of the three directors or 'owner' Tommy Agombar.

Hereford: Williams, Yorweth, Cutajar, Hawker, Gasgoigne (Capt), Gordon,Vetier, Bobes-Gilroy, Mor diop, Yafai, Roberts.
