Rob Purdie Interview - Part 2

Part 2 of our interview with Hereford United and FC legend, Rob Purdie.

In this second and final part we talk about Rob leaving for Shrewsbury and coming back to lose to Hereford in the cup alongside Graham Turner. Then the painful last season of Hereford United, starting with Martin Foyle and ending with Peter Beadle and staying up at Aldershot.

We talk about the difficult demise of our club and of course, the end. Rob talks through his time at United in the community under Agombar and Lonsdale.

We then move on to the rising of the Phoenix, Hereford FC, that fantastic first season with the players, the team and the manager.

Before we talk Wembley! Fake tan, nervous energy and a goal after 85 seconds. Rob talks about his disappointment at not winning that game before moving on to his final seasons, the fire service and just how much Hereford itself but the club (HUFC/HFC) meant to him. It gets a bit emotional!

Thanks to Rob for his time and amazing stories and insight. Thanks also to Jamie Griffiths at Hereford FC for allowing us to use the space and being so accommodating. What a club we have!
