They have reaped what they have sown....they wanted us kicked out of the league and out of existance in 97 and I have no sympathy for them whatsoever.

They can go the way of Maidstone and Scarborough for all I care and they were both more deserving of a place in English football than Hereford.

.... is, I'm afraid, the correct answer.

Hereford United's new owner.

Seems fine.

 

[B.W.]

Hmmm... is there still a valid reason not to sign? (I know the history, but isn't that, err, history?)

 

[seagullsovergrimsby]

If we hadn't scored the equaliser how long do you think our club would have survived playing as a non league outfit at Pissfield ?

It looks like in 1987 Thomas Agombar fella was jailed for 7 years for being part of a lorry theft gang. I don't think I would want him as our owner.

 

[Surrey Phil]

Signed.

 

[Insel affe]

Nah.....

 

[Blues Rock DJ]

I'm out...

 

[The Antikythera Mechanism]

Some very bitter people on here. Seventeen years is a long time. All their junior supporters (under 18's) have been born post the match in question. Why not help them?

 

[essbee]

Bollox* to Hereford...they're a bunch of wan*ers. I hope they go down the pan and never come back.

 

[Phat Baz 68]

No WAY !!!! after my mate was hit in the head with a brick thrown by a gang of Hereford supporters back in 97 when he was on his own, sober and not in the least bit in anyway a hoorag. **** EM !!

 

[The Birdman]

And Peter Ward should have had a penalty as well?

Such short memories people have .... i'm staggered reading this thread!

You shouldn't be surprised - especially if you were there that day in '97. For some reason they blamed us for their relegation, forgetting that their team surrendered the 12 point advantage they had over us during the run in. After the game their fans (and it was more than just a few) were animals. They've held a grudge against us since then. Nobody wants to see clubs like Hereford disappear but I can understand the apathy in their case.

Pretty much sums up my feelings other than I wasn't there in 97.

I have had the great misfortune to have encountered Hereford Fans on several occasions since that day and it is quite clear that they despise us with a passion, some of the abuse and on one occasion physical violence aimed at me and a group of mates was intense.

I'm not the kind to paint all supporters of a club with the same brush due to the actions of a few, but as far as I can make out they all hate us and tried to have us expelled from the league.

But signed none the less.
