Kettering are a big name in football, I hope they survive.
Disagree. The best bet to get footballl back in Kettering is via a new club. Why? The past few years of Kettering Towns histroy has left the name in absolute tatters. CVAs have been agreed and not kept. The owners have used (abused?) the club for publicity stunts; for example Gazza as manager (cringeworthingly embarrassing interviews), using the shirts for Pro-Palestinian purposes(breaks the rules as shirts should no be used for political purposes). All sorts of goings on with the Rocky Road ground and then moving some miles up the road on a 25 year lease. The name of Kettering Town is now junk. Ladak and Rolls have dragged it through the mud. They should be ashamed of themselves.
There are circumstances where the best thing to do is collapse and start afresh. Chester and Halifax spring to mind and I beleive this is the best thing that can happen for the fans of football in Kettering.
There is already a Kettering FC set up by a splinter group of fans, it appears that Ladakh managed to divide the fans though once KTFC collapse I am sure they will regroup around the phoenix. They have a fairly local example to follow - Rushden & Diamonds.
