Top of the League (among other things)

And not before time. Haven't updated this as often as planned as I suddenly realised I hate writing. Since the last blog however plenty has gone on....
Firstly, 2 haphazard home games against Bishops Stortford and Biggleswade, but regardless of form we still went on to win. Teams come to Edgar Street these days with all intention of defending for 90 mins so it's no surprise really. And that my friends, is title winning form so whether it be 1 or 10 nil, its still 3 points in the bag.
Then Millsy gets a knock, and the fans start to worry, understandably. Mind you, we have lost him for a week or two in the past and we still win and score goals. Thankfully it turns out to be nothing too major, a slight cartilage tear and he'll be back out on the pitch soon. I actually have a similiar injury and have had for a couple of years, and still manage to run and play indoor football (badly). It does need surgery eventually, but I'm shit scared of hospitals so continue to avoid the inevitable. I reckon he'll get it done in the summer ready for the next season.
Lovely day at Dunstable yesterday, and our 4 - 0 win coupled with arrogant Kings Lynn's draw puts us nicely at the top of the league for the first time. Maybe now their chairman will shut up.
Another positive has been good old Ian Long (Alvechurch manager) still having a go, this time about the Beadlegate phone business (sore point). Two years on, and he's still bitter! Ian man! Calm down! We've moved on these days!

Bulls Bash Banbury 3 - 0

After a long spell with no home games, we finally got back to business at Edgar Street. Banbury were the visitors, probably still seething after we beat them 1-0 at their place, and then dodged stones on the way out as their fans went a bit silly post match.

After the ritual burger, coffee and chocolate bar we then saw a good strong team selection from Beads today, and at kick off we got off to a lively start. Not sure if you've heard, but the Bird was indeed the word as he belted one from distance to put us 1 up. I like Jamie Bird, always puts a good shift in and he can hit them for sure. The game got a bit scrappy until the end of the first half as a few tackles left a few players rolling around, and the momentum was gone for a while. The ref was ok, but fussy. An angry Beads was chasing him around on the way back to the tunnel, poor sod!

Second half we picked up the pace a bit, and then had a nice start with Mills getting flattened in the box, and then of course converting the pen. Top corner, oof! You can watch that strike right here.
Last 15 minutes of the game we looked fantastic I thought, played some class football and Refell made it 3 with a lovely finish to a great move. Proper deserved his Man of the Match as he was into everything today. When he gets going he takes some stopping.

Banbury put up a bit of a fight today but we looked different class at times. We don't look like getting beat at any time these days. Still in 3rd with some games in hand, its our to lose really. The big one on Tuesday, where we have the honour of being fleeced by greedy Kings Lynn. Banging gate prices up by a quid is one thing, but by 3? Shame on you KL. Greedy bastards, I hope we smash them out of spite!

Bulls Noise - taking over the media!

Bulls Noise in a written format???
Hello! Paul from Bulls Noise here! I have started this Blogger business to run alongside the Bulls Noise vlogs that you can find on YouTube. The idea is to be able to share my warped view on all thing Hereford FC on a regular basis. So, if there's anything going on behind the scenes, we may well discuss it. Home games? Yep, some written reviews and pics perhaps. The vlogs will always be on away days but it will be good to link it all together. Get subscribing to this (or whatever it is you have to do). This is still work in progress so bear with me, and get contributing to any discussions on here, but keep it lighthearted...don't be hating!
Come on you Whites!
