HEREFORD United skipper Luke Graham is putting his money where his mouth is to encourage fans to back the young Bulls.

The former Forest Green defender is putting up £50 to pay the entrance fee for 10 adults and 20 concessions to tomorrow night’s (Tuesday’s) Midland Youth Cup tie at Edgar Street .

“With the situation that the club is in, we need as many fans as possible to back the youth team,” said Graham.

“We just might find a future first-team player there.”

Graham, who described Saturday’s loss at Hyde as ‘probably the worst defeat of my career’ will himself be attending the tie and the first 10 adults and 20 concessions to arrive will have their entry paid by him.
