“I thought it was a complete performance against a very good side,” the Corby boss said.
“I said in the week that I thought Bedford were a team that was probably in a false position and underachieving this season due to their FA Trophy run.
“They came and had a gameplan of what to do and we had to be at our best.

“We know that if we get the defensive side of it right then we have goals in us.
“We hung in there and we got the third and fourth and we could have had a fifth and sixth in the end because the game got opened up so much.”
Kinniburgh, meanwhile, reserved special praise for midfielder Kennedy who has now scored eight goals this season having managed just two in the whole of the previous campaign.
“He was outstanding,” Kinniburgh added.

“He is becoming a box-to-box, hard-working midfield player and he has added goals to his game.”
The Steelmen return to action with a trip to Barton Rovers next weekend.
