Darlington v Hereford preview
By Ray Simpson
Quakers looking for four unbeaten in the league
Darlington are looking to stretch their unbeaten run in the league to four matches when they make a second attempt to play their home game against Hereford on Tuesday night. The previous game was postponed because of a frozen pitch just over a fortnight ago.
For various reasons, Hereford have only played once in the last three weeks, a 3-0 home win over Rushall.
