The 2012–13 season was the 92nd competitive season of Hereford United Football Club and 10th overall in the Conference Premier, following their relegation from League Two in the previous season. The club also competed in both the FA Cup and the FA Trophy.

Season summary

Following Hereford's relegation, Richard O'Kelly resigned as manager and was replaced by Martin Foyle.[1][2] Vice-chairman Tim Russon also resigned from the board on 23 May 2012.[3]

Hereford kicked off their season with a Friday night fixture at Edgar Street against Macclesfield Town, also relegated from League Two, beating the Cheshire side 2–1.[4]

Hereford reached the second round of the FA Cup, knocking out arch rivals Shrewsbury Town, then in League One, along the way. Drawing League Two club Cheltenham Town in the second round, Hereford took their higher graded opponents to a replay at Edgar Street before losing 2–1 via an extra time goal.[5][6][7]

In the FA Trophy, Hereford defeated fellow Conference Premier club Ebbsfleet United in the first round, before hosting Chelmsford City of the Conference South, one league below, in the second round. Their opponents produced an upset, comfortably winning the tie 3–0 and knocking Hereford out.[8][9]

The club's financial difficulties grew bigger during the season and in October, David Keyte suggested that unless Hereford found fresh investment, the club could enter administration. Their situation was slightly eased in November with an outstanding tax bill paid off using £70,000 received from their televised FA Cup fixture against Cheltenham.[10][11]

Hereford ended the season strongly, winning five of their last eight fixtures, losing only once. They finished one place outside the play-offs in sixth but were still ten points off Wrexham immediately above them.

Hereford's financial woes continued after the playing season had ended as the club announced that players' wages would not be paid for April.[12][13]
