"Robinson said: “We know not to come back and not to trust what people tell you. It’s a shame K*ttering have found themselves in this position, but they could’ve shown us a bit more courtesy. It doesn’t take much to paint lines on the pitch or paint the goals.”"

Trust, courtesy and K*ttering all in one article :shock: Never expected to see that ;) :lol:

I don't like MK Dongs much, but they've just gone up a tad in my estimation :D

He's clearly a Ploppy fan. Look at his history. ;) However, he recognises all the good work, fan and sponsor support going on at our club.

Ironic that many Ploppies blame earlier problems at their club on the emergence of RDFC during the mid-90's and maybe, despite our senior start in lowly UCL Division 1, history appears to be repeating itself which will mean less and less people will be bother to turn up to Nene Park.

Food for thought for whoever take over the reins at KTFC in George's enforced abscence I reckon. ;)

What the Ploppies fans fail to recognise though Paul is the positive effect R & DFC had on local derby attendencies, therefore generating income for their club. Not to mention us buying their players for over-inflated prices. WE are the future, they are in serious trouble IMO.

His "mole" obviously talking a load of rubbish!

Was hardly half and half. I didn't notice many Posh fans in attendance.

They say that moles are either blind or have limited eyesite, ths K*ttering one appears to be the same, 90% diamonds fans. I suppose if we get 400+ for our first league game the majority will be Thrapston fans according to the same person

I doubt whether there were 25-30 posh fans there on Friday evening, so whoever the 'mole' was he hasn't a clue. ;)

Probably the same 'mole' that told them to expect around 600 ex diamonds fans last season :lol:
