Nick Kennedy equalised for Selby from the penalty spot
Selby Town were able to kick-start the exciting new era under Christian Fox by grabbing their first victory of the season in a tight contest with Retford United.
Selby showed great character to recover from being a goal down. Former York City youngster Nick Kennedy cancelled out Kyle Wesley’s opener by converting a penalty.
Selby then took the game to their visitors in the second half. Wing wizard Joe Dale added the second with a header.
Kieran Harris scored Selby’s third with an unbelievable 30-yard which rocketed home off the underside of the crossbar with nine minutes left on the clock.
Zak Khaufa set up a frantic finish with a further goal for Retford, but Selby held out.
The match ended with a mini brawl which ended with the dismissal of Retford’s Craig Laight. Selby goalkeeper Josh Archer saw yellow for his part in the ruckus.
