Before the merger? Be interesting although i doubt many people who watched the old sides frequent this board.
They say we've lost our money we're not famous anymore.....

Irthlingborough Diamonds. I don't remember even having season tickets :lol: . I do remember it was 50p to enter through the original turnstyle (which was probably just to the right of the entrance to the South Stand big doors - more or less).

My Dad played for Diamonds in the 70s and that was were my family lived, they all followed the club but I'm not exactly sure to what extent.
I was only a few years old when the clubs merged but I could imagine supporting the Diamonds had they not.

Guess my vote is neither then lol.
Diamond down South.

I had no link to either club, although i do live in Rushden, and i would have probably been interested in Rushden Town. Having said that i probably would have been a glory supporter :oops: and i was leaning towards Man Utd at the time :oops:

I think thats a neither too ;)
