From the BBC

Hereford v Yeovil

Hereford goalkeeper Wayne Brown looks set to make his return after recovering from a groin injury so Chris Weale, on loan from Bristol City, steps aside.
Striker Simon Johnson is also poised for his debut and on-loan Watford frontman Theo Robinson is also expected to be in the squad.
Yeovil will again be without skipper Terry Skiverton, Marc Bircham (both groin) and Gary Dempsey (foot).
Scott Guyett, Skiverton's replacement, is doubtful with a head injury.



I think we are going to win this game, there is a rivalry between the two clubs and we are due one against them.
If as they say (and they do tend to agree on the official Hereford site too) that Robinson and Simon Johnson will start upfront then that’s a positive imo. Robinson played on Saturday and looked good, he’s a young Watford loanee……..

Theo Robinson - Age 18 - Squad Number 22 - Theo joins the Bulls on loan until December from Championship side Watford. A fast young striker who graduated from the Watford Academy. Has already found the net whilst on trial during the Bulls pre-season campaign and is a player who will offer something different to the more experienced Steve Guinan and Trevor Benjamin.

And if we have Simon Johnson playing too (ex Leeds and Darlington) then I know he will be giving his all as he’s playing for an extention to the one month contract we’ve offered him. Ben Smith may return to boss the midfield too after coming on as sub on Saturday, that would be another positive imo.

We beat Coventry 3-1 at home this time last year and we do like our night games at Edgar Street. I’m very confident GT will put out a strong (possibly stronger than last Saturdays) team.

What about Yeovil? Well their injuries look a slight negative and their priority is surely the league after just missing out last season and after losing 1-0 away at Huddersfield on the opening day I’d say their home game to Port Vale on Saturday is the one they’ll be making the more important game of the two.

I’ve just upped my stake to the next level on Hereford so bet 3 now reads
