RUGBY TOWN 1 KIDSGROVE ATC 3

- By Jon Venner

RUGBY’S bottom two finish was cemented after another disappoint­ing Butlin Road defeat.

Town had taken a tenth minute lead when Levi Rowley forced the ball home from close range, but Kidsgrove almost got themselves level before half-time when Mark Grocott curled his effort against the bar.

Chris Martin denied David Kolodynski shortly after the restart, before Lee Pickerill grabbed the equaliser when he speared one into the bottom corner from 20 yards.

Mitchell Thomson and Kolodynski both had good chances to restore the home side's lead before an Ant Malbon quickfire double settled the game in Athletic's favour when he scored on 79 minutes and then a minute later.
