No disrespect but I have moved on. R & D are dead.

My focus is now AFC R & D

Why would he do that? He's kicked us out and washed his hands of us hasn't he? I'll never follow them again while those tossers are running the club anyway, and I'd have to think twice even if he booted them out and took over the reins again to be totally honest - I feel let down by the lot of them !!

Couldn't agree more, KC has done a fine job on us and comes up smelling of roses, we've been had big stylee 8-)

I can't understand why though, if they think those that would support AFC R&D and those that will venture to watch KTFC at NP are one and the same then they'll be very much mistaken. I never thought I'd ever type these words, but the sooner R&DFC is wound up the better as afr as I'm concerned. If AFC R&D can be formed then great, if not, then I'll have a really lovely tidy garden eh?

As I mentioned a couple of weeks ago this is all now about bums on seats at Nene Park this season.

Its all down to business now, the only way the Poppies move to Nene Park will work is if ex Diamonds fans continue to go and watch football at Nene Park.

This isn't about saving the Diamonds, or us forming a new Club, its about making sure the Poppies move to Nene Park is a success and to do that they need Diamonds fans to watch the Poppies.

Wait until the end of the season when they're bottom of the league, already relegated and on the verge of going bust themselves! :lol:

I don't think the first game's attendance would be that bad tbh, there would be some local interest (i.e. in East Northants) I would have thought, it'll be the end of season attendances which will be interesting considering I think they may struggle to avoid relegation this year (and I'm sure there'll be off field problems). Who knows AFC R&D could get similar or even better attendances that they may be getting by the end of the season, as I think we could potentially be able to attract an average of 400-500.
