Hereford FC are pleased to confirm the signing of local lad Jordan Williamson from Hereford Pegasus, following a successful trial period with the Bulls this summer.<\/p>\n
The attacker has spent the majority of pre-season as part of Aaron Downes\u2019 setup ahead of the 2026\/27 campaign, featuring in the friendly against his former side on July 11th as well as the trip to Bishops Cleeve and victory over Worcester City.<\/p>\n
It was Williamson\u2019s enterprising run that won the penalty for Hereford\u2019s opening goal on Tuesday night, converted by another Pegasus alumnus in striker Cawley Cox.<\/p>\n
Pegasus\u2019 player of the year and top scorer in 2024\/25, Williamson produced more stellar performances throughout 2025\/26 to help the Hellenic League Premier Division outfit finish ninth in the table and lift the Hellenic League Challenge Cup.<\/p>\n
The captain\u2019s 32 goals in all competitions included four against local rivals Westfields at the beginning of the season \u2013 three of them coming in the space of just five minutes \u2013 and a second quartet to help defeat Droitwich Spa towards the end of it.<\/p>\n
That unsurprisingly secured the forward another golden boot accolade, while he was also crowned players\u2019 player of the season and supporters\u2019 player of the season.<\/p>\n
First and foremost, he\u2019s had great success at Pegasus. We\u2019d always planned to take a look at him and see if he was able to step up to our level<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m really pleased to be able to bring Jordan into our football club,\u201d said manager Downes. \u201cFirst and foremost, he\u2019s had great success at Pegasus and we\u2019ve been aware of him all over the summer. We\u2019d always planned to take a look at him and see if he was able to step up to our level, and we\u2019re extremely pleased that he has done that.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere are areas of improvement we know that Jordan can make and make quite quickly, and I\u2019m excited about the attributes that he can bring to our team.<\/p>\n
There is good talent within the Herefordshire area and we\u2019re glad to bring in two local players that are going to make a massive difference for us<\/p>\n
\u201cSecondly, Jordan is from Hereford and knows what it means to represent this football club, and he\u2019s really excited and honoured to be joining us. Along with Cawley [Cox], it shows that there is good talent within the Herefordshire area and we\u2019re glad we\u2019re able to bring in two local players that are going to make a massive difference for us.<\/p>\n
\u201cI also want to thank Pegasus for their patience and understanding, and we look forward to seeing what Jordan can do in a Hereford shirt this coming season.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Hereford FC are pleased to confirm the signing of local lad Jordan Williamson from Hereford Pegasus, following a…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":708335,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[33],"tags":[218,101,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-708334","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-football","tag-football","tag-sports","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/708334","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=708334"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/708334\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/708335"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=708334"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=708334"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=708334"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
