JERSEY BULLS 4-1 KETTERING TOWN
In very hot conditions,Jersey Bulls totally outplayed the Poppies, going into a half-time lead of 3-1. The Bulls first was an own goal after a scramble in the penalty area (above) before Decarrey Sheriff levelled the scores. But a combination of slack defending and too much space for the hosts, who featured former Poppy Lorne Bickley (who added the third) made the game extremely difficult to recover from.
A rotation of the squad improved the second half performance, but another own goal late on put the final nail in the coffin. Manager Lee Glover was as disappointed as much as the Poppies fans that travelled to the game and admitted he has a lot to think about before the game against Corby. This was an eye opener for all to see.
