The unofficial AFC Rushden & Diamonds messageboard

Now confirmed.

Have we got a sub GK signed up? The young blonde kid has been at pre season but don’t think we’ve had confirmation he’s signed forms yet.

Also signed Snellus??? Not sure what he brings tho

One less cold seat on the bench?

Thing is, none of really know how good he is as he's hardly been given any game time. Teammates on social media seem to speak highly of him and hopefully he'll get his chance to impress

had quite a bit of game time early in pre season and unfortunately showed very little.(Don't know if he was carrying injury)Then disappeared only to return for Luton game. Not sure what his position is? When he signed last year it said striker (doesn't look like 1) or no10( we've just lost Tshikuna cos don't pjay with a 10) played midfield against Stamford & that really didn't suit him either. I've not seen much about his time at Ives either

Yep,glad there were some moves to come on the eve of the season.

Now time to say good luck and all the best to Burge, Chris and the team for tomorrow, put the pre season behind you and prove the fans wrong about you. Gutted I can't be there tomorrow, but just hope we get fully behind Burge and the lads.

Sure, like most I'd assume, there is a fair amount of trepidation going into this season, the worry that the first few games will brutally expose us as not being up to standard, but just hope we can gel and compete and get the best out of these young lads. There's talent in the squad, no doubt about that, a perfect opportunity for many of them to prove themselves and kickstart their careers.

Come on you whites!!

<BUMP> Matchday!

I’m actually excited for todays game, hopefully that excitement won’t turn in to disappointment at 5pm!

0-0, can't comment on the game or performance as wasnt there, but quite pleased with that really after having times in preseason where I genuinely thought we could get ripped apart on the first day of the season.

Impossible to say how the rest of the season goes from here as it is a long season, but a point is a start!
