James Acaster's Sweet Home Ketteringa - Episode 1 - Kettering Town FC

[@nevgilhooly3382]

The awkwardness of the Kettering Town FC song sung to 2 people 😂😂

[@joekunedo]

@HikoZoldSeijX it had me laughing. The looks of "wtf" is he still doing it for?

[@thames21]

@HikoZoldSeijX You wrote "let alone 2 people haha." and then you say it isn't at all funny. Contradictions.

[@wiionmii1111]

@HikoZoldSeijX it's funny as fuck. The fact that its awkward and forced and hardly funny is what makes it funny. And Acasters facial expressions

I just love how they can’t think of a favorite Acaster bit, followed by a jump cut to him literally doing his material (the KTFC song) at them. This whole video was a microcosm for what it’s like for people that move far away from home to return to their roots, and see random things have happened to their favoritest places and people.

James Acaster is a comic genius. I love that he did this at this point in his career. Way more funny than if he did it now and would be swarmed with fans. Genuinely brilliant guy.

[@bunnylebowski69]

I saw him do stand up in something like 2009 & the only thing I remember him talking about was being from Kettering 💪🏻

[@paraflak]

Just wanted to mention about where the nickname poppies came from, it came from a radio commentary where the commentator described Kettering playing in poppy red, and that's where it came from not sure what year, but must have been decades ago

[@benthomas4430]

paraflak i thought it was because the old stadium was built on a poppy field

[@robingillard2726]

You are correct Ben.

[@chrisnorton4382]

When they were originally formed I was told they played in blue. I think they switched to red after WW1.
