Royston Town v Kettering Town

 My vlog travels took me this weekend to a very sunny Hertfordshire, where I took in Royston Town v Kettering Town... thanks to an invite from Royston media man, and board member Neil Macleod.

After my days footy and filming had ended, I was so grateful of the invite, because Royston Town is such a lovely club, with very welcoming and friendly people… and the team was not too shabby either!!!

I feared beforehand, that I may not get the greatest afternoons entertainment, as, both teams had reached the point in the season where neither could get promoted or relegated….but, luckily, I got a match I really enjoyed, even if it wasn’t Kettering’s finest afternoon… and I’m quoting the words of some of their supporters I spoke too.

Talking of supporters, Kettering fans, as always, travelled in good numbers, and that made for one of the better match atmospheres I have heard this season, which, hopefully you may hear if you watch the vlog below.

One final thing, as always, both managers, Chris Watters & Kettering’s manager Richard Lavery were very friendly when I asked (and was granted) a pre-match interview, and in Chris's case, he was extra helpful, because, the original one I did with him was spoilt by the glaring sun, so, I asked him was it possible to do it again, which he was happy to oblige with… now, can you imagine that happening in pro footy???… I can’t, and that’s why I always maintain and want to promote that Non-League really is the best!!!

Here's the Vlog, hope you enjoy it!
