HEREFORD have sacked their boss, Pete Beadle.
In a shock move, the Bulls have decided to move on from Beadle, who had steered them to three promotions in as many seasons - being crowned Champions each time.
A statement on their website said: "This is not a decision the board has taken lightly and it is one made with a heavy heart. However, the Directors are in unanimous agreement that now is the right time to make a change.
"While recent results have been disappointing, this is a decision taken more with the long-term goal of progressing to the Football League in mind and we feel it will give the club the best possible chance of continuing the positive progress it has made so far."
The Bulls host Harriers on Boxing Day this season, before the return league game at Aggborough on 1 January.
