Damned if you do, damned if you don't. We're not expecting anyone to say 'well that makes it all better' it is a mark of respect to Dale, and to RDFC.

Fair play to you guys on that one. Dale was, and always will be, a Diamond through and through; the irony of you guys standing on a terrace named after him isn't lost on me ;)

Nothing adds up at the Sadact Palace, even if he has 1000 season tickets when you take off the freebies and then the VAT it may just cover the Utility Bills let alone the playing budget, Rent etc.
Give it until Xmas then once again the Sadact clear out and budget cuts and most likely heading towards Administration in time for next seasons AGM Cup.

This could go two ways in my opinion.
No one watches them and they struggle by xmas.
Or give it till xmas and they are near the top of the league and many local football fans ( children and adults) in the area will flock to watch them just like they did when we were succesful.
A years a long time to wait with no 1st team football on offer locally.

Of course it can go either way but looking at the Figures its just Shit or Bust economics.
Sadact knows that just relying on the Ploppy support from last season will not be enough to keep the club afloat so he is going all out to get new people from the Kettrin area and support from the local area of Irthlingborough/Rushden.
You will see more spin and claptrap from Sadact as the season gets nearer and into the early stages with more giveaways to local schools etc and it will be spin about Community and Co-operation between the old and new, just like the Dale Roberts Stand.
Prepare for the Onslaught of propaganda from the ET over the coming month or so.
