Chris Wilder gave his videon verdict to Yellow Player after seeing his side earn a point at home to Kettering on Saturday.

The Poppies came into the game boasting the finest away record in the Blue Square Premier and came from behind to grab a draw after the U's took the lead through former Kettering man Franny Green.

The United  manager praised  the way that his side started the match as well as their battling spirit in an ugly second half. Said Wilder:

"I thought that the way we reacted after Tuesday for the first twenty-five minutes was really good, we got our noses in front and put ourselves right on the front foot for the majority of the half and then conceded what was a poor goal from our point of view. We let them back into it when they hadn't really done much in the half and that was really the last thing that we needed to do, but we battled and put our foot in against a decent side with a solid away record."

"It's not the worst result in the world and I don't class it as a must-win game. A must-win game is where you need to win to either win the league or stay up and that wasn't the case. We're still right up there and the spirit among the players is good so it's a case of continuing to work hard and keep believing. Two weeks ago we played some of our best football of the season against Wimbledon and with a couple of players still to get back it's down to us to keep working."

"We're a point behind with eleven games to go and it's no good to keep looking back because this is the situation that we find ourselves in, but we've got a good opportunity to go to Tamworth and put ourselves on the front foot. There's plenty of life in us and there will be a lot of talk from outside influences over the coming weeks, but we've led this league for most of the season and I think you write us off at your peril."
