There was the brilliant FA Cup run and that special Sixfields win at county rivals Northampton Town.
There was the superb league form in the first half of the campaign, with the Poppies sweeping aside all that was put in front of them.
Then there was the drop off in form from the turn of the year onwards as Bedford Town upset the odds to win the Southern League Premier Central title, and that agonising play-off final defeat to AFC Telford United at a packed Latimer Park.
It was a season of real highs and disappointing lows, and thankfully photographer PETER SHORT was on hand throughout the campaign to capture the moments as they happened from a season the Poppies fans won't forget for a long time.
17. Stamford 1 Kettering Town 1 - March 26, 2025
Now just a point off the top, Kettering couldn't afford any more slip ups. Aaron Powell scored his only goal for the club on 15 minutes and the Poppies looked like they were going to hold on despite another turgid display. But after nine minutes of stoppage time, Stamford were given a corner and Jordan Cooke nodded home - giving Bedford the advantage in the title race Photo: Peter Short
18. Kettering Town 2 Hitchin Town 2 - April 5, 2025
Surely with the better run-in of fixtures on paper, Kettering could at least put pressure on their rivals? But the Poppies continued to find new ways to frustrate their fans going 2-0 down against second from bottom Hitchin Town with 10 minutes to go. They threw the kitchen sink in a frantic final period to eventually salvage a point thanks to Lewis White deep into stoppage time Photo: Peter Short
19. Kettering Town 0 Harborough Town 0 (Poppies win 4-3 on pens) - April 30, 2025
Could the Poppies get over not winning the league? Would the Latimer Park pitch hinder them? Would Mitch Austin be a thorn in Kettering's side yet again? In truth Kettering deserved to win in normal time and again in extra time. But in the lottery of a penalty shootout, up stepped Dan Jezeph who saw off four Harborough penalty takers, including former Brazilian international Sandro Photo: Peter Short
20. Kettering Town 2 AFC Telford United 4 - May 5, 2025
Promotion looked on for large parts of the game. Nile Ranger gave Kettering the lead before half-time and when Telford equalised on 49 minutes, Wes York struck soon after to make fans believe it was their day. But keeper and defence had a horror final 25 minutes and the Bucks marched on to Step 2 whilst everyone connected to Kettering were left to think what could, maybe should have been...
