FIrst half goals from Tony James, Steve Guinan and Simon Travis gave Hereford a 3-0 lead at the break, it what was an effortless half for the Railwaymen.

RMI produced a battling performance in the second half, Gareth Holmes being a class above the rest in midfield. But despite Leigh's efforts it just wasn't enough after Daniel Carey-Bertram scored Hereford's fourth of the game and 100th of the season.

The visitors made it five late on when top-scorer Guinan slotted home for his 26th goal of the season.

Hereford: Baker, Green, Tretton, James, Tom Smith, Travis, Pitman, Purdey, Betts, Guinan, Brown. Subs: Rose, Carey-Bertram, Cozic, Beesley, Coton.
