The unofficial AFC Rushden & Diamonds messageboard

I remember Hipwell playing a centre half for Yaxley against us and he was solid, nothing got past him and seemed to read the game well. I'd imagine he'll play in the centre

A good new signing. Still no news on the King's Langley game, which surprises me. The result should stand.

Merry Christmas everyone.

I'd think he's been brought in to play left back as we will be seriously short in that department in the new year!!

I wasn' too sure who he was until l saw the photos of him. I recognise him but can,t remember his performance's against us. The club needs squad players and l believe he will be one of them, able to compete for several positions and play when needed at the back, in the middle, or maybe on the left, to balance things up. He could even play at left back and Sam play up the left flank. Good signing? Time will tell.
Merry Christmas.

What's happening with Sam Brown then? A desperate shame if he is leaving as he's been fantastic for us.

I've heard Sam Brown is going to Australia for a year.

This may be gossip though.
