THE Southern Football League have confirmed that Hereford United will not be lodging an appeal after being wound up.

The Bulls were liquidated in the Royal of Courts of Justice on December 19 after no evidence was provided showing funds were available to pay creditors.

The court heard former owner Andy Lonsdale was stuck in traffic.

The fact that there will be no appeal means that United's playing record in the Southern Premier League will now be expunged.

The Southern League statement reads: "Following the winding up of Hereford United in the High Court on 19 December and confirmation received by the League that no legal processes to appeal the order will be forthcoming, the Board of Directors has unanimously agreed that the Club’s playing record for the current season is expunged with immediate effect.

"The Premier Division table has been adjusted accordingly.

"Any further matters relating to Hereford United (1939) Ltd will be dealt with by the Office of the Official Receiver."

Hereford were 14th in the table when they were wound up having accumulated 30 points from 25 games.

The re-adjusted table now puts Weymouth top, while St Neots, who picked up six points against the Bulls, slip to ninth.

Burnham, who have already been deducted three points for fielding an ineligible player, beat Hereford 5-2 in August.

However, that result has now been wiped off, meaning Burnham are now bottom with 17 points.
