A nice win for Chester last time playing, versus Kettering Town. That was also a home game and the match ended 4-0 with Willoughby, Dudley (2) and Williams scoring for the victors. Sweet to taste a league victory after three matches without. As indicated by the result mentioned above, Chester played a great game against Kettering Town and beat them comfortably. Expectations are high for this one.
