Benjamin might join Bulls


Trevor Benjamin could be the next player to be signed by Graham Turner if speculation is correct.

Benjamin, picture from the BBC, has been released by Peterborough by mutual consent after two seasons with the club. The front man scored eight times in 47 League games.

"Trevor has been with us for two seasons and we wish him the best of luck in his career. We thank him for his service. I think he will be signing for Hereford United in the next few days," said Peterborough director Barry Fry.

Welingborough born Benjamin is 29. He started his career as a trainee with Cambridge and moved onto Leicester in summer 2000 where he spent five years. However during that time he was loaned out to six different clubs. He was released in January 2005 and joined Northampton. However he was only there one month before moving on again. Eventually he joined Peterborough in time for the 2005/06 season where he has been based until yesterday.

Whilst with Posh he was loaned out to several clubs including Walsall late last season.

Bulls supporters may remember Benjamin and Dean Beckwith clashing in the League game at the Bescot in April when Beckwith was, probably unfairly, dismissed.

"The game hanged on the referee's decision with the sending off. I thought that it was Trevor Benjamin who committed the foul in the first place and then to rub salt in the wounds, our lad gets sent off," said Graham Turner at the time.

UPDATE 10am: Interest in Benjamin confirmed by Hereford United's official site. They report that he may play this evening against Wolves.
