Despite Hereford being on my ‘patch’, I can’t really comment too much about Simon Davey’s sacking yesterday or his tenure at Edgar Street … he wasn’t there long enough for me to even meet him!
It’s always sad when someone loses their job, but football is so cut throat Davey will have been expecting it even after only ten games. Five points and bottom of League Two doesn’t inspire confidence from the board or the fans let alone the players.
A friend watched the game against Oxford this season and told me that Hereford just hoofed the ball forward and “couldn’t have strung more than six passes together for the full ninety minutes.” If that’s the case, you’re guaranteed the players won’t have enjoyed playing this way and I guess this has been reflected in the results.
It’ll be interesting to see who they bring in next, and the state of the club now is also a testament to former chairman Graham Turner – a real football man who kept the Bulls punching well above their weight.
I've set up this blog (Monday-Friday) to give extra coverage to teams I cover for the national press. Any views and opinions are all my own. Best wishes, Jeff. Follow me on Twitter and I'll update you each time I blog. http://twitter.com/JeffTaplin P.S. During the summer break I reserve the right to ramble on about anything and everything!
