POLICE were called to a restaurant following reports of "aggressive behaviour possibly involving Hereford United players". Officers were called to Pizza Hut off Newtown Road just before 3pm last Friday. It is believed the disagreement was over payment but police say the matter was resolved before they arrived. Hereford United manager Jon Taylor, who wasn't at the restaurant, said the issue occurred when one of the players left the building to return to the Edgar Street club to pick up money - left by Mr Taylor - to pay for the meal. He added that a member of staff at Pizza Hut had been "rude" to some of his players. "The bill was paid in full," said Mr Taylor. "The players would not go out somewhere and not pay." Pizza Hut confirmed "an incident" place. "We can confirm that an incident occurred at our Hereford restaurant on Friday 17th October and we are currently assisting the local authorities with their investigations," said a spokesperson for the chain. "As this is ongoing we are unable to comment further." A West Mercia Police spokesperson said there will be no action taken. www.herefordtimes.com/news/11547151.Hereford_United_pizza_row/I often visit that Pizza Hut and usually the staff are all to pleased to let me leave the premises without paying so I may calmly walk to my place of work where my boss has left £8.57 in a brown envelope for me to pay my bill. Honestly this is just the media having a pop at "professional" footballers again!

The team mascarading as Hereford United, lose at Slough. Most of the action seems to have taken place after the game.

About time too. Council's are said to be strapped for cash yet the club haven't paid their rent or rates for months. No doubt the Council have been chasing residents and other businesses for unpaid taxes as this farce goes on.

Stumbling block last night appeared to be assistant manager Neil Phelps, who has allegedly been sleeping at the club since his wife, who was sacked by Tommy after she moaned about not getting paid, kicked him out. Subsequently he has said he will not be leaving. He is one big prize dipstick. His previous managerial experience was coach to Pegasus U'10 girls team. So another breach of the leases there. Environmental health are visiting this morning. This really could rival Coronation Street.

Hope the "real Hereford United" manage to reform after all these problems but ironic that one of the longest threads on Bull's Banter was about the finances of STFC.

I don't understand how this attempt by the council failed it was only one person in the ground? I stopped following this a few weeks back, apologies if already mentioned but what is the current stance by HUST fob?

HUST's stance remains the same. No dialogue with owners until all " football " debts settled.

Does it make a difference to bailiffs if there is someone there rather than entering an empty property - legally I mean?

The council went to the ground assuming it would be empty with the idea of padlocking everything and serving notice that anyone entering would be trespassing. When they discovered someone there, they couldn't "secure" the building.

Late this afternoon they paid council around £48,000 owed. Looks like they have survived again. Don't see any early end now to this saga.

And our team of forensic audio examiners have identified our new fit and proper chairman, Andy Lonsdale, even though he has been involved in 27 failed company's and owes a few million pouinds, chipping in with his plans for a casino on site.

I have , in the past , posted on this message board in , shall we say , a less than complimentary manner when referring to Herefords plight . Even so I do genuinely feel for their supporters after numerous chancers have put themselves forward as the saviour of this once proud club. How many more times will this happen and how many more times will their supporters be deluded into thinking that , this is it , our club will be saved.
It can't carry on and however hard it may be the kindest thing is for Hereford United to fold and perhaps start up again in a different format . If fans really want a team to represent their town then they will continue to turn up and show their support in the hope that they may, eventually achieve football league status again.
Surely it is more acceptable than being taken for a ride time after countless time by complete ****wits who should never ever be allowed any where near a football club .
As ever it's the supporters who get shafted , our Chairman may not be everyone's cup of tea but we truly have a lot to be thankful for , not least a new ground and a team to be proud of without the club breaking the bank . If some of our supporters had there way we could have ended up in the same situation as Hereford !

Must admit its amazing to watch - its amazing how brazen these thugs are in what they are doing. Living locally however I'm not suprised by Edgar St's landlords, the local council, lack of action - as they appear to be mostly corrupt old boys who saw service during the Crimean war!

Really hotting up now. Our friend Tommy has replied on the official site.....no idea how he managed that as he has naffin to do with the club anymore....denying it all and threatening everything under the sun to catch the people who published it and impersonated his voice. Does he not realise that when the people who have the voice mails ( that one was a nice gentle one) are interviewed by the police, they will be obliged to pass on all the others they have, including the ones where Tommy reveals in graphic detail how things are done in the east end.
The story has been taken up by the Guardian ,who are planning a big piece on Monday, Pat Murphy of the BBC is taking considerable interest, especially with regards to the FA and their lack of action. Just need to get it broadcast on Sky sports now.

Surely the fans will get their club back soon. At least, if there's any justice they will.

Hi Slops, I come in peace believe it or not! Have you heard the voicemails our former majority shareholder left a fan? audioboom.com/boos/2676940-we-ve-got-your-club saveedgarst.blog.com/2014/11/23/the-greatest-cockney-rip-off/ Andy Lonsdale ('chairman') and Tommy Agombar have both denied that it was them, but it's pretty obvious. We're in court again on Monday, god knows what the result of that will be. I see you lot are doing well though, never thought I'd be jealous of Shrewsbury Read more: blueandamber.proboards.com/thread/89226/long#ixzz3KC6TD8lO

Sorry for posting the above on two threads but I've only just seen this.
The whole situation is laughable, and after reading Tommy's statement last night I had to change my trousers.
He's got NOTHING to do with the club anymore after failing the FA's fit and proper persons test, but he was able to post a statement on the OS at gone 10pm last night, how is that possible?
I get so angry and the whole situation, and during my lunch yesterday I walked past the dilapidated ground, the christmas decorations are up and the temptation to walk through the doors (which were open) and wreck it all was so tempting.
It's not longer a fight for control, it's a fight for Edgar Street. If there's no Edgar Street, there's no Hereford United.

Comical goings on at Edgar Street - just the true fans you feel sorry for in such a shambles.

Jesus, you really can't help but have sympathy with the fans of the club but i still can't help feeling that had the organised part of the fan base concentrated their efforts on starting again and not just trying to combat these crooks then they may now be in a slightly better position

That wouldn't be a phoenix club and it wouldn't be playing at Edgar Street. I wouldn't support that club because it would hardly be Hereford United. Playing in white at Edgar Street and I'm there.

But isn't that part of the problem ? Edgar Street may have to be sacrificed for the greater good. Slightly different but you will take the point, I wanted Shrewsbury Town to be playing in Blue and Amber stripes at Gay Meadow, if we had done that we would have died. Wimbledon fans now have a club they can cherish and support and they suffered probably worse than HUFC have done- their club was literally stolen from them with official sanction. Too many unrealistic aspirations and sentimentality may be counter productive to your stated aims

Any phoenix club would have to play at Edgar Street initially. Wimbledon are slightly different because MK Dons moved out of town, leaving nothing at Wimbledon. They were then able to start again, with their own original identity. We would still have Herefraud united playing at Edgar Road, and whilst they are still in existence the phoenix club would have no identity and would be more of an FC United of Manchester.
I am probably in a small minority of Hereford fans who think that eventually, a move away from Edgar Street may have to happen, as in your move from the gay Meadow, if a new location can be found. But first, we have to remove everything associated with the new regime.

What amazes me is that Hereford council have s**t on HUFC for years and now fans think they are going to help their cause. Not to be trusted! We know the Council can't be trusted, but I think they're too incompetent to do anything anyway. In all fairness they did try to repossess the ground, their plan foiled by our assistant manager sleeping at the club. I fear the Council will be all too easily bribed with money. Money talks. Carrying on from what Full of Bull said, I'm against a move away from Edgar Street, but it needs to be rebuilt basically. Blackfriars Terrace will never be open again, I fear the Len Weston has the same future. As for the Meadow End, that's not going to be 'safe' for much longer, but the main stand might survive for a bit longer yet. Basically Edgar Street needs developing. The Old Market shopping thing needs to be enhanced, but all the current owners want to do is build a casino on it. Where the ground is now needs houses and a hotel being built on it, but most importantly, it needs a bit of grass in the middle where people play on a Saturday in white.
