You never see a poor Bookie. Not yet anyway......

Bet365 have nailed their colours to the mast for the forthcoming National North season.  And it would be fair to say their suggested final league finishing positions have been the cheered length and breadth of Kettering.  Seemingly based solely on our final finishing position last season, Bet365 have predicted
a 10th place finish for the Poppies in the 2022-23 season.

That's right.  Lee Glover's hastily assembled team of unknowns and nobodies, spearheaded by a striker who hasn't scored on English soil for over 4-years are tipped by the tipsters to finish well above the relegations scrap.

Every single Poppies fan has gladly offered to accept this and cancel the season here and now.  Take our season ticket money.  We don't care.  We'll buy a stack of Klondikes and even pop by Latimer Park to have a few drinks and a burger every now and again.  The Town are staying up!  KTFC Chat has already clubbed together to buy a Player of the (non) Season Award and announced Gary Stohrer as the winner.  Poppies fans will celebrate long and hard after such a successful season.

And yet......

After pondering the situation for a moment more it suddenly strikes us that a 10th place finish is good, but.....you know.....a couple of more wins might have seen us snatch the last play-off spot.  C'mon Poppies!  More effort needed!  Bottled it again!  Bloody Hell Ritchie, get your chequebook out!  Glover Out!  Glover Out!  Boo!  Boo!
