BARRING a miracle, Hereford FC are going to win the Southern Football League Division One South & West.

The Bulls are 21 points clear at the top of the division following today's games and have only dropped points in three games this season.

Their latest win was a routine 3-0 victory at Slimbridge courtesy of goals from Mike Symons, John Mills and Tristan Plummer.

Despite captain Joel Edwards missing out, resulting in Jimmy Oates reverting to left-back, and Bradley Williams coming in for the suspended Mike McGrath in the middle of the park, the Bulls were rarely troubled and proved that they've got a squad that no other team in the division can match.

Taunton - who three weeks ago became the first team to beat Hereford this season - have dropped five points in their last two games, while Evesham haven't won in three matches.

It means that Hereford likely to win the league sometime in March.

As it stands, the Bulls only need another 20 points from their next 12 games.
