Buoyant Hereford boss Graham Turner hopes his side can build on their first league win of the season. Second half strikes from Stephen O'Leary and Bradley Hudson-Odoi ensured the Bulls bounced back impressively from last weekend's 6-1 defeat at Bristol Rovers.

"We desperately needed the win, and it has given everyone a lift."

Crewe boss Steve Holland felt his side reacted badly to going a goal behind.

"We've had a positive couple of weeks, with some good results but it is disappointing in the end."
