United were back in front in the 25th minute when Allan Pluckrose curled the ball round the defence for Ketteridge to control before planting a low drive past Williams. It was 3-1 in the 76th minute when Steve Cox sent Ketteridge clear and he finished with a flourish past the advancing Williams. Three became four in the 80th minute when Ketteridge's lofted through ball found Pluckrose who was about to shoot when he was pushed in the area. Referee Graham Poll said penalty and Cox stepped up to fire home from the spot and get United's Christmas programme off to a winning start.
