A couple of things we can be sure of on Tuesday. At least one red card will be shown. At least one penalty will be awarded, probably when Houness is unable to resist imitating Tom Daley. :nono: And at least 1400 in attendance. By my reckoning K*ttering have been awarded about 15 pens already this season.I hope Ben Heath has done his homework. All in all it should be an eventful day!

Yeah, they do get a stupid amount of pens and like you say, Hoenes is probably responsible for getting most of them, when I saw them earlier on in the season in the FA Cup (for work reasons, not out of choice I might add lol) they got 3 penalties and could have had more, you've got to stop Hoenes running in behind your defence otherwise you're ****ed, the Hednesford defending on that day was clumsy for sure, they just didn't know how to handle him, but it's no secret they've got a dangerous attack. So do we though :cool:

They're in mixed form though, they would have only drawn against Bedworth if it hadn't been for the linesman ruling out a goal in the last minute and had some pretty dismal results against Redditch, St Ives and Banbury, so we definitely have a chance of getting something from the game even if we will undoubtedly be underdogs.

I'm going go for 1-1, Diamond to score, crowd of 1500 with 500 away fans there.

So where can we get a beer before the game then as we’re not allowed in the club house?

Well you can start off at the Crosskeys, at Hayden Road, Rushden which will be open from 11am tomorrow ahead of the game.
Can't comment on anywhere in Burton for closer to kick off.

Ryhs hoaness is by far the biggest cheat I've see in non league football.Watched thier highlights vs kings Lynn,he blatantly tried to cheat 2nd half for a pen!!! It's about time something gets done about it.... they other week they get Holmans red over turned (correct decision imo) however how often do you see that happen at our level........ So when you have the same player week in week out trying to cheat something should be done about it,most clubs now video thier games so know excuses!!! So you know for a fact tomoro they'll be a decent crowd & he'll do his up most to wind everyone up by throwing himself to the floor every time someone gets near him!!! Like someone said the amount of pens they get is embarrassing,& 90% of them are threw him Conning refs & cheating!!!! Come on you DIAMONDS........
