Well the general rule is keep the home fans quiet, make is almost boring for them.

We have to be good at the basics, high discipline with no needless free kicks and be patient. Chances will come.

Would prefer Hurst to start other than Gibson or even Moly but happy to see Sbarra given a chance.

Ref’s a Homer, pitch is a shocker and the goal was a gift in a number of respects but apart from a short spell we’ve looked utterly clueless.

Shocking selection today. Sbarra and sharp on this cow field is a waste of time. Can bin Kelly off today as well.

Keeper should be picking that piggy roller up if he's stood in the normal position there. Very embarrassing first half

After the shaky start, we played it right and should have got in front.

Another silly mistake cost us and it makes it a different ball game now although I wouldn't change things apart from Gibson maybe.

Once again the final third where we just need to make something count.

Emmanuel is a powerful runner, can beat his man and whip good crosses in.

Could argue Sterry shouldn’t have given Kelly the ball in an awkward situation that led to the goal.

Oh, and he showed again why he was on the pitch with that second goal.

Pisses me off when folks say a striker has had a poor game when he’s had next to no service.!!

Sharp does what he’s best at.

We were never going to be dominant in these circumstances - and don’t forget their players will e used to playing on that surface.

We should have had a penalty and unlucky not to score with Moly’s two efforts cleared off the line.

Today was always going to be about Kettering, same as it would be about us if we get a “big” club at home next round.

Yes we didn’t do much first half but you would think we were 0-4 down reading back some of the comments on here.

As for their goal, a sloppy pass and soft giveaway, then Anderson could have done more to block but I thought he unsighted the keeper a bit.

Anyway, job done.

 Credit to Anderson though; he had a good game.

The referee has had a reasonable game I think.

Largely yes, but the stats show 21 foul for us and 13 for them. I didn't think there was that much difference.
