Looking grim for Kettering

Looks like we may sadly lose The Poppies from our league...!
Poor Kettering were wound up today and will be in the hands of the receivers.
Just goes to show how easily things can change.
I remember watching them play against Wycombe for many years in the Conference, talented side in those days.
If ever there was a reason to get behind the team this is it.
Keep it up for the Moles.....  

Sad indeed but it's happened to do many "big" non league sides!!!

You can write lists and lists of these poorly run clubs that have fallen from grace.

And an even bigger one when all these foreign investors/playboys find another hobby to throw their millions at

terrible news.

You mean Chelsea?

Hmm maybe, was Maine Rd good on Saturday?

For one Gareth Bale you could buy Sheikh Mansour's little toe. His spending on City is the equivalent of us buying a half time ticket at FC.

Yes, the Etihad was great, rest of the afternoon i was glued to Twitter sweating on the result from Haywood's

My uncle goes to watch Kettering most Saturdays ,he says club still got big non league the fan base and that fans are doing everything that they can to get the money , there selling things at car boot sales and giving all money to club people are willing to buy next year season ticket to help out , and there in the town centre holding buckets asking for people loose change , ,I hope they get them selves in orde as was looking forward to go to there ground

Fingers crossed for them, just goes to show how tough times brings out the best in people.

Poorly run, mis managed football club. Outgrew their potential too soon and did not make the right provisions for progression. Doesn't help having people upstairs bleeding the club dry either. That's what people need to realise; it's not a case of rushing up the leagues, it's a case of implementing the correct infrastructure to accommodate it to ensure you avoid treading the same path. In the words of twatter, #slowly but surely
