    Ep21 - The Summer Poppie(!)cast

    Craig does a brilliant job taking the reins this week as podcast host, and welcomes Ed and Danny back onto the show. The guys talk through the numerous new signing announcements that we've seen this past few weeks, and how Liam McDonald might piece them together in a title-challenging side. Danny talks to us about the KTFC Supporters Association latest - there's exciting plans and your feedback is very much required to shape what you'd like to see from a Supporters Association. You can find the survey at https://ktfcsa.com/launchsurvey

    Ep20 - The Cookiecast

    On this episode, we welcome Kettering Town Legend Paul Cooke onto the Pod. Cookie has been following the Poppies since 1983 and has become a legend in his own right, fulfilling a number of roles at the club over the years, most recently as the iconic matchday commentator at Poppies Media. We talk to Paul about his efforts in documenting all things KTFC through his "Poppies Companion" book, and he regales us with many stories of years gone by. He really is a great listen!

    Ep19 - To sell or not to sell?

    There's significant interest in buying Kettering Town, coming from a consortium fronted by ex-Poppy Brad Piercewright. But should George Akhtar sell? Jamie, Craig and Shorty talk it over, and we're also joined by Danny Jordan to talk about his work in building a website and fan app for the Kettering Town Supporters Association, which is a new fan-run idea.

    Ep18 - Playoffs Again, Away Dismay

    The podcast has a muted celebration of turning 1 year old in this episode - thankyou to everyone who has listened to us over the past 12 months! For the second time in a year, the guys confront playoff disappointment as Kettering crash out 1-3 at Real Bedford. The journey to get back into contention was one to be proud of however, and Jamie, Niall and Craig talk it through with a sprinkle of optimism for next season.

    Ep17 - Poppies in "Ed-Hot" form

    On this episode we welcome long-time Kettering Town commentator Ed Palmer into the booth. How did he get into commentating? What are his influences? And what does life away from the microphone now involve? Plus we have the small issue of Kettering winning 8 (Yes Eight) games since our last episode, in a meteoric rise that has seen us right in the playoff mix again. We rightly heap the praise upon Liam McDonald, his players, staff and the Club in general. Can we go one step further this year??!

    Ep16 - The Playoff Picture with James Loader

    On this episode, Jamie is joined by James Loader who is now based in Auckland, New Zealand. James is a long-time Poppies supporter from the Rockingham Road days, and we talk about his favourite memories following the club Home and Away. We unpick the playoff picture - how many points has been historically required in previous seasons, and do we think the Poppies can get there? The games are coming thick and fast now, so we will no doubt have plenty of match content to bring you in future episodes! Thankyou for listening - Up The Poppies!

    Ep15 - JP Marna

    This week, Craig and Jamie live out our younger-selves' dreams by interviewing Jean Paul Marna - a true Kettering Town Legend with 247 Appearances and 76 Goals for the Poppies. JP answers all the good questions, about winning the Conference North, about the songs that the fans sing for him, and about his continuing love for Kettering Town. In the present day, the Poppies have 2 away wins on the bounce as our lingering hopes of the playoffs live on!

    Ep14 - Shorty and June

    Two superb guests join us for this week's pod! Peter Short of flip-flop fame and everyone's favourite Aussie, June Whitehouse, joined us to talk KTFC. Shorty tells us what it's like to be behind the lens on a matchday and regales us with tales of doing every job under the sun at Rockingham Road, and June spoke to Niall about following the poppies from the other side of the world and getting up at 01:30 to tune into Poppies Media on YouTube. As ever, thankyou for your support - if you'd like to join us for an episode then you would be most welcome! Up The Poppies!
