Hereford were smiled upon by the God's to pull this one out of the bag. Cheltenham took the lead after 35 minutes following an excellent strike from Dale Watkins. If their finishing had been a little better, they could have had another two before the break, but Neil Grayson hammered home the equaliser in the 42nd minute.
After the break, Hereford held most of the possession with Grayson claiming a second and three minutes later Ian Foster took his first goal for the club with a well struck shot.
This seemed to put Hereford in control but as has happened so many times before they became complacent. leaving Jason Eaton free on goal with just 8 minutes remaining.
Cheltenham's second goal really put the pressure on Hereford as they were pressured hard for the remainder of the game and often had a scramble inside the 6-yard box to prevent to draw.
I understand that Graham Turner later admitted that this was the luckiest three points Hereford were going to get, as the game could have been lost so easily.
Cheltenham's manager Steve Cotterill also admired Neil Grayson and said that he will be causing opponents plenty of problems in the future.
