Narrow Pitch At Fleetwood


Hereford manager Peter Beadle will be aware that the pitch at Fleetwood is narrow and this could affect his team selection for the FA Cup tie on Saturday.

Uwe Rosler made mention of the narrow pitch in a pre-match interview with BBC Lancs Sport. He also thought Hereford would be physical.

"We are fully aware of the ambitions and threat of Hereford," said Rosler

"We are not the biggest name in the competition, we mustn't underestimate anybody.

"They will bring a lot of people which will give it a good atmosphere.

"Hereford is a successful team this season, they haven't lost an away game, they know what they are doing, they know they can put the ball in the box.

"We need to find a way to keep them from our half, from our box.

"I know that Hereford will try to make the game physical, make the game scrappy.

"Our pitch is quite narrow so that means we need to be aware that they will be physical contact all over the pitch and we need to stand up to it."
