Herefordshire Council has said that it is prepared to offer a two year lease on Hereford United’s old ground at Edgar Street.   The Hereford United Supporters’ Trust is disappointed that it is only two years, although the council is prepared to extend it.

The Supporters’ Trust are setting up a phoenix club to be called Hereford FC.   However, according to BBC Midlands, two other parties are also interested in taking out a lease.

One of the challenges is that the ground does need some investment to bring it up to modern standards. However, it does look as if non-league football, albeit at a relatively low level, will be back in Hereford next season.
