'Talking Bull' to sponsor Brighton match

The Hereford United independent on-line fanzine 'Talking Bull' is to sponsor the home match against Brighton & Hove Albion, which is due to take place on Saturday 7th February.

One of the original founders of the fanzine, Chris Jones, is hoping the sponsorship can bring together many of the fans who have contributed in some way its success.

'We thought it was time to say a heartfelt 'thank you' to all those who have helped keep the fanzine going during the past few years,' he said.

'It's an official sponsorship package which includes a pre-match buffet, half-time and post-match-drinks, tickets to the match and a match programme.

'We will also be presenting the 'Man of the Match' award, but that'll be tough as John Snape is no longer around!'

Initial invitations have already been sent, but depending on numbers, further places may be found prior to the game.

'Talking Bull' continues in its new on-line format, and is looking for articles, jokes, and letters from contributors old and new.

It's totally independent, just as it was back in 1989 and continues to 'give all Hereford United fans their say,' so why not get involved.

Chris Jones, believes the on-line presence can help Hereford supporters:

'Talking Bull is delighted to remain an outlet for Bulls fans views and comment from across the world.

'It's a great way for Bulls Exiles to keep in touch with all things Hereford United, and enjoy a bit of banter along the way.

'One of the main reasons for the demise of the printed version of TB is the rise of the internet, and so it's fitting that we are now embracing the technology and we would urge supporters that use it to get involved.

'Hopefully some of our former contributors will once again 'hit the keyboard' and stimulate plenty of discussion'.
