Former manager Colin Addison has stressed that Hereford United needs a miracle urgently.
"What happened in 1972 (Newcastle) really was a miracle," the former manager told the Sunday Mirror.
"And Hereford needs another one to happen right now.
"Gates have fallen by 50% over the past seven seasons because what we have produced on the pitch hasn't been good enough to keep the fans coming back.
"But those that have never wavered in their support haven't lost their spirit.
"And the fact that players with mortgages to pay and young families to feed haven't deserted the club, despite not being paid in full for a couple of months, proves to me that they care as much as the supporters.
"We're still hoping that the club can be saved. It would be terrible for the city and the county if the worst happened.
"And it be a damn shame for the football as well.
"What we need more than anything is cash."
