In the early part of 2007 Hereford were hovering in mid-table, and a notable 4–1 away win at eventual play-off semi-finalists Lincoln City lifted them to 8th position. However, from the end of February, the club went on a very poor run of form with only 8 points earned from the 13 remaining matches, only one of which was a win, meant that the club dropped as low as 17th, before eventually finishing 16th.
Two former players, Ben Smith and Steve Guinan, returned to the club in the January transfer window.
