SOME Hereford FC supporters were left scratching their heads when Bulls manager Pete Beadle brought off star striker John Mills this afternoon.
Mills, who earlier pulled a goal back for Hereford in the 54th minute, was replaced by Pablo Haysham with 18 minutes left.
A few boos were heard around the ground when Beadle made the decision, while some supporters even chanted 'you don't know what you're doing'.
Beadle told the Hereford Times that he thought Mills was 'poor' and Haysham needed some more minutes under his belt.
Surely the limping Plummer comes off for Pablo bringing Moleneux to the right wing leaving John Mills to score the second goal #goitwrong

Despite the loss though, a lot of Bulls supporters are remaining positive, pointing out that it was only Hereford's first league defeat of the season and they remain a massive 15 points clear at the top of the league.
@bbc5live Hereford FC unbeaten run ends. Congrats to Taunton. Brilliant Bulls to stay unbeaten in the league for so long. Onwards.

Didn't think @HerefordFC played badly today. Fair play to @TauntonTownFC , they were solid and took their chances. #COYW
