A strong police presence backed-up by security guards was at the ground as Kettering Town FC battled for promotion with AFC Telford United yesterday (Monday, May 5).

After the final whistle, a pitch invasion by Telford jubilant fans saw a few segregated supporters attempt to reach one another but were kept apart.

A spokesman for Northants Police said: “There was only one arrest after the match. This was a 21-year-old man from Kettering who was arrested on suspicion of affray however, he has since been released with no further action.”
