The Non-League Football Paper|August 06, 2023
STAMFORD took all three points against a committed Kettering side at a wet and miserable Zeeco Stadium despite falling behind to an early penalty.
BLUNDEN SWOOPS TO STUN POPPIES

STAMFORD 3  - Duffy 28, Morgan 43, Blunden 71

KETTERING TN 2 - Bennett 4, Lewthwaite 38

A bumper crowd braved the elements and were rewarded with an entertaining clash.

The home side got off to the worst possible start in the fourth minute when a ball into the box skipped off Joe Burgess’ foot on to his hand which was deemed a deliberate handball.

Sam Bennett smashed the penalty to Ben Whiting’s left and the stopper had no chance as the visitors took the lead.
