The Bulls have been dealt a blow after Steve Guinan agreed a two year contract to play for Northampton Town.
Manager Stuart Gray told their official website: "I am sure Steve will score goals for us. He has a lot of experience and that is vital. I look at the successful sides, and in Championship play off final you see Burnley who have a number of experienced players with knowledge and know how and you see what an influence they have.
"Steve is a student of the game who has his coaching qualifications and he is a very intelligent player who can pass on his knowledge to the younger lads. A few times last season we fell flat but he can be a leader and he can organise and he has won promotion from this level on more than one occasion so he knows what is required. He scored 15 goals last season in League One in a relegated side and he was their Player of the Year so he comes with a decent record.
"We need plenty of talkers out on the field and Steve will be one of those."
Guinan will officially become a Cobbler on July 1st on the expiry of his Bulls' contract. He leaves the Bulls after 64 goals in 175 games for the club across four seasons and a three month loan spell.
The striker has given an interview to BBC Sport.
"I've had a good time at Hereford and being honest it's a dissappointment with what's happened contract-wise. But that's football and you move on," said Guinan.
"Hereford were always one of the favourites to get relegated but I scored quite a lot of goals in a team that did get relegated.
"In my two last full seasons in League Two I have had two promotions with Cheltenham through the play-off final and with Hereford so I know what League Two is all about."
