Last night Cllr Jim Kenyon was one of the select few allowed inside Edgar Street. At 6pm he came out and addressed the fans that had congregated.
Supporters were asked to keep an eye on the ground, as previously reported on BN.
Kenyon also answered questions from supporters and told the crowd what little information he did have.
This morning he tweeted - @Jimofhereford: @BullsNewsBlog @YourHereford1 fans have stayed overnight outside the ground vigilant,taxi dvrs have been checking,police patrols #safehands
"On Monday, the council are going to apply to take the leases back and the council will take the leases back from Hereford United, so they're all safe.
"We spoke about the ifs and the buts and the A and B plans and all that sort of thing, but it's all down to the council to move that along. Tonight you've seen what you've seen, the gates are going to be locked"
Later he spoke about what the council had hoped to do today:
"The council can't act until Monday to secure the ground. The council were on the ball today, they were in London and applied to get entry to the club, but they wouldn't let them do that.
"To be fair, the council have acted really well and done everything they can. They looked at other options and the only option is to wait until Monday to go to court."
