Fozzy Bears A Quick And Lethal Combination


Next weekend Hereford United visit Frome Town, now managed by former Bull Adrian Foster.

The former forward joined the Somerset outfit from Western League side Gillingham Town last December, taking the Robins to a mid table finish last season.

They are currently in the bottom four this term, having played only five of their 17 games so far at home but have recently signed strikers Lewis Haldane and Omar Simpson.

Haldane, who quit the pro game with Port Vale after a string of unfortunate injuries, was a man in demand after netting 31 times for Yate Town in the tier below last season, but signed for Frome on location after speaking to Foster: 

“For me, it was important that I didn’t go somewhere where I’d have to drive one-and-a-half hours to training three times a week because I want to be able to see my family and things like that. Frome is only five minutes up the road from Trowbridge.

“I spoke to Fozzy and he’s been there and done it as a professional footballer so he knows what he’s talking about."

Simpson joined from Chippenham after flitting between professional football with Yeovil and a track career that saw him clock sub 11 second times for the 100 metres as well as competing for the Great Britain team at 200 and 400 metres.
