Following the club's troubled 2001-02 season when they finished 17th, the majority of the first team squad were released, with only six contracted players remaining.

Retrieved on 21 June 2008.] Leading goalscorer Gavin Williams was offered a new contract, but chose instead to sign for Yeovil Town who paid Hereford £22,500. Graham Turner built a new squad, drawing largely from the pool of players released from Football League clubs, a consequence of the ITV Digital collapse.
