Steelmen boss Setchell makes ‘maximum effort’ promise to club’s fans
Boss Gary Setchell says he won’t be making any rash statements about Corby Town winning the league or promotion this season, but he is promising the club’s supporters ‘maximum effort’ as they try to do just that.
The Steelmen were impressive 3-1 winners at Bedworth United on Saturday, bouncing back in style from suffering their first defeat of the season at the hands of title rivals Quorn last Wednesday night.
Corby were beaten 2-0 at Steel Park last midweek, and Setchell admitted he and his players were slightly stung and taken aback by some of the ‘all sorts of stick’ that headed their way after that loss – their first in 11 league matches this campaign!
Despite the setback, the Steelmen are flying high and sit second in the Pitching-In Northern Premier League Midlands Division table, with Quorn leapfrogging them on Tuesday night thanks to a 5-1 win over Loughborough Students.
The likes of Sutton Coldfield, Sporting Khalsa and Anstey Nomads have games in hand and can also close in on Setchell and his team.
But the Corby boss says he always knew this was going to be a tough league to get out of.
