And here are some facts and figures:
  • 25 goals scored, by 10 different players
    • Mills (6), Symons (6), Bundu (5), Tumelty (2), Birch (1), Edwards (1), Haysham (1), Purdie (1), Staley (1), Willets (1)
  • Hereford have played teams from 5 different leagues, three teams of which were top of the table at the time
    • Hartley Wintney - Combined Counties League Premier
    • Leicester Nirvana - United Counties League Premier
    • Salisbury - Wessex Premier League
  • The Bulls knocked 3 fellow MFL Premier teams out of the vase
    • Bardon Hill, Rocester and Brocton
  • In 3 out of the 8 draws they were drawn away
    • Bardon Hill, Rocester and Hartley Wintney
  • Only 1 game went to extra time, and substitute John Mills scored a euphoric 119th minute winner causing Camberley heartbreak
  • Hereford have accumulated £19,000 in prize money so far, with £17,000 for the runners up and £25,000 for the winners
On top of the £19k prize money, Hereford will have also received 50% (after costs) of all the gate monies from each game. Not forgetting the huge interest the Vase has generated, which is likely to have had an affect on the amount of merchandise sold in the Club Shop.
