This table provides some interesting reading, especially with a beer...The top five there are way above Stevenage.

Once you move out of your town and own catchment area, your on a steady decline.  I have got totally confused with the goings on at Northwich but I for one used to love beating the Vics at the Drill Field and bombing it home.  I hope the club finds its feet again in its own town.

well said , the drill field had everything a club needed> for one history > and a potential 2000 att ,then they move

The town supported two Conference teams for a while with Witton Albion.

correct, no doubt in my mind.  How are the 12 and 13 year olds of Kettering meant to get up to Nene Park?

Gazza is like any genius, in that he is flawed.  Management isnt for him lets be frank.

Very sorry to hear about Kettering, hadn't been keeping tabs on their situation.

The move to Nene Park was a joke at the time and was clearly never going to work out. The distance from Rockingham Road to Nene Park, is the equivalent of us moving to Eccles! Then to hear they went full time after dropping 3 divisions is quite frankly laughable. George Rolls and Imraan Ladak should be given life bans from the FA.

Hopefully Kettering fans can get together and form "AFC Kettering Town" and renew a local rivalry with the newly formed AFC Rushden and Diamonds  http://www.afcdiamonds.com/
