And finally the WINNERS take to the presentation stage to receive their winners medals, great reception from the fans - any ticker tape and fireworks er NO - WELL DONE LADS as The Liquidator begins to play

Poor form, rubbish why not play the liquidator, the players and the crowd me included sang with them. Why put a dampener on a brilliant night. These brave local kids have done us proud, Taylor and Ashworth are future stars.

Perhaps you have forgotten the play-off final against Derby; they were not very magnanimous in victory, to say the least and we have been very critical of their behaving that day. We don’t need to sink to their level.

I tell you what the Albion fans are getting their moneys worth tonight its been an age getting the presentation stage set up I doubt any Wolves fans are staying behind to watch this LOL The lads are now taking a lap of honour, well a half a lap!!!

[kettering_baggie]

Great result for the lads, did really well to get back to 2-2, but some poor penalties there! A win is a win, though, excellent!

What a shambles, though, in putting the presentation stand together? Why couldn’t they have a camera in front of the stage for the presentation? I have to say, too, that it was not good to play the Liquidator after the presentation, given that the usual words will be sung, I thought it poor form, we have won after all, no need to rub it in with that. Having said that, another ‘Well Done’ to the lads.

Well done lads! Looked like we wouldn’t do it so many times. How many keepers have saved 3 in a row before I wonder?

Thanks Phil.....good commentating.....👍👍

Well done to our Under23's but I wonder how many of them will make our First X1 in the future?
