I disagree.
HT was very good at doing the jobs that no-one wanted to do, she wasn't/isn't fazed by being disliked and she was/is excellent at working within a budget. If she agreed a deal with you, she stuck to it. She's not my favourite person (and it's totally mutual) but I firmly believe that if she had stayed when the Bs came along, they would have found her a formidable obstacle in their grand masterplan.

That is exactly why I think they got rid of her, she did say at one of the meetings that there was NOTHING at Nene Park that she didn't know about.

I put the blame for the demise of Rushden & Diamonds, squarely at the feet of Keith Cousin's, and Steve & Liam Beasant.

Helen gets my vote as being a real trier, if she is on your side you will benefit, there were times when she personally was paying some wages, I know that for a fact.

She is a bit frantic and cant sit still for 5 minutes, hence when she retires/resigns she immediately does something else, I feel she is underrated!
