Banbury United are back at home this Saturday as they prepare to take on Kettering Town who just saw their FA Cup run end in extra time on Sunday. The match takes place on Saturday 7th December 2024, KO 3pm at the Banbury Plant Hire Community Stadium.

Make sure to come down and support the team as we continue to face repair costs from the flooding. Here is the link to access tickets.

Important message for Kettering Town supporters: this is an all-ticket, segregated event. Away supporters MUST purchase their tickets online and in advance by 13:00pm on Saturday 7th December.

There are no ticket restrictions for home supporters.

After a frustrating 2-0 loss against Lowestoft Town last Saturday, Simon Hollyhead, first team manager, said: “What good characters, good players talk about is absolutely looking in the mirror first.

I have every faith in the group to deal with the next challenge which comes next Saturday.

What better way to kick-start December than to play Kettering.”

The Poppies currently sit top of the league and have won four of their last five league games.
