Tight game which could've gone either way. Thought we had the better of the first half and they shaded the 2nd. We hit the post and looked bright early on with a few efforts going just wide. Then they put a few dangerous balls in, Dion Curtis-Henry made 2 or 3 good saves in the 2nd half and we defended generally well- no real howlers for once at the back.
Then with about our only well worked move in the 2nd half Agnew scored.
Alty huffed and puffed, one or two close calls but we were able to see it out for that long awaited first away league win, much to the delight of the officially numbered 62 of us in a crowd of over 900 (looked a tough optimistic that)
Cements us solidly at the top of the lower group and Alty will likely climb away from danger
Suppose I'd disagree with their general consensus that they could've won convincingly, they could perhaps feel hard done by to lose but that's what happens when you're down there, like us losing to FCUM at home! Must also say really enjoyed the day out despite the lower than expected turnout from us, a cracking bar (Costello's- wonder if named after Peter!) on recommendation from a mate of Dads, then the King George just behind the away end. Good stuff.
Kettering lost again at home today (v 2nd placed Dunstable) ad are now 12th. We're going there in much better shape than we would have 3 weeks ago. Hopefully should be a good turnout from both sides
