KIDDERMINSTER 4

LINCOLN CITY 1

Football Conference

Attendance: 2,103

WHEN I first saw the My Favourite Non-League Picture feature in The NLP, I began to think about a standout image from the many thousands I have taken in NonLeague football over the years.

I can tell you, there were many contenders in terms with the images featuring a variety of highs and lows – either on the field or on the terraces.

Grimsby Town supporters waving inflatable fish to open the 2015-2016 season particularly stands out, as does the cover image of Leyton Orient fans celebrating winning their place at Wembley in the FA Trophy at AFC Telford United last March, and Maidstone United’s famous FA Cup win at Cheltenham Town.

I’ve also got plenty of Kettering Town securing promotion at Halesowen last season, as well as images from my more frequent jaunts around Step 5 scene, with a record crowd of 2,000 witnessing Sporting Khalsa’s famous FA Cup run coming to an end against FC United one of the many highlights.

One image, however, stood out above the rest. This takes us back to October 19, 2013 when Kidderminster Harriers hosted Lincoln City in the Football Conference at Aggborough.
