Well folks, another new dawn at the Poppies breaks today with the Liam McDonald era kicking off against perennial pissy, party-poopers St Ives. Liam must be hoping that 3rd-time-lucky-manager-of-2025 and get a good start with plenty of the season left after bottler Hollyhead-ed for the exit.
In many ways this season has gone exactly like last season, with one small difference. Last season our rise, dominance, cup run, team fragmenting and eventual failure followed by managerial change took all 10-months of the season. This season, the club, showing remarkable efficiency has packed all of the above into the first two months of 2025-26.
- Good start - five straight wins - check!
- Both tilts at Wembley done and dusted early doors with great aplomb!
- Team falling to pieces in front of us - not everyone can shed all their strikers in a fortnight!
- Form hits rock bottom and any sack of shite can give us a pummelling.
- Manager sacked / resigns / mutual consent - take your pick.
Yes, the whole of the 2024-25 season neatly wrapped up before November. Now what? The same again? Another new set of players for us to barely have a chance of committing to memory? A challenge for the league, or mid-table consolidation?
Who knows, but it should be exciting. Except, this is Kettering and we'll probably fumble that too.....
