ROYSTON T 4 KEMPSTON R 4

- By David Baulk

CHAMPIONS-elect Royston Town should have had this game won, but credit to play-off chasing Kempston Rovers who kept believing to the final whistle.

Scott Bridges opened the scoring from the spot after Ryan Ingrey was fouled on 14 minutes, but Shane Bush levelled five minutes later.

The second half was much livelier but it took a substituti­on to find a goal, as Matt Nolan came on and almost immediatel­y scored.

The veteran striker got his second on 67 minutes after a good move involving Josh Castiglion­e, but Kempston got one back through Ash Fuller. Ryan Ingrey’s superb lobbed effort restored the two-goal lead, but the Walnut Boys scored two late on through Sam Johnson and Seb Simpson.
