Swindon Town travel to take on Hereford United at Edgar Street on Saturday afternoon, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The Robins will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them being consigned to defeat by opponents in 4 of the 7 games.
The last time the two teams met at Hereford Utd. was amazingly over twenty years ago, in August 1985, when they eased past their opponents in a high-scoring 4 - 1 thriller, in a Fourth Division match.
