The unofficial AFC Rushden & Diamonds messageboard

Not that i believe anything on Wikipedia but in the 'Phoenox club' page it lists so called 'phoenox' football clubs, the latest entry for 2012 is a phoenox club 'K*ttering 1872 FC' created from the original club K*ttering town.

Why does a club need a ground like nene park to run at conference level? I can name lots of clubs in the two leagues above functioning fine with worse grounds. Telford natural level was and is conference ao they are already back where they were before. Halifax and chester will come back for sure. AFC diamonds will get there for the reasons ive stated. They have learnt from the past, adapted quickly are running at profit already,commercially already pissing all over us, and have clever people in the right positions who as you say in an earleir post will harness and and build relationships with councils etc. They are switched on they will come back make no mistake.
As fans we are not happy with owners, mis management etc then we are sceptical about other AFC clubs. Me if it comes it comes.

Paul does seem to have grasped the situation better than all the blinkered ones 8-)

Yep, he's switched on and a massive advocate of a phoenix club, there are many who don't agree with his views on this issue, and that could be their ultimate downfall. While they have fans like him I'm sure they'll make a success of it if they do go down that route.

I can't see how they can get out of the massive hole that Ladick has dug for them, not without the help of the kind of sugar daddy many of them slag off.......oh the irony eh?

Looks like K*ttering have got another 24 hours from the Conference board

Will be interesting to see the outcome, especially after farnborough got deducted points yesterday 8-)

its ridiculas, there always gettin extra time :S

"K*ttering Town say they have made payments to football creditors and their players in a bid to avoid a three-point deduction".

Its quoted they have made payments to creditors, but how much?

Is it the full amount, and is it to all the creditors, I doubt it. More questions need to be asked or is this just another delaying tactic and another smoke screen ..... :o

Rolls has apparently invested a five figure sum into Kettrin - that wouldn't be a the same five figure sum he recieved from Biddecombe for the takeover of Weymouth?

I see he's also urging 2,500 spectators to turn up on Sat "in their hour of need". Where have we heard that before? They had a fundraising friendly recently and only 500 turned up.

What planet is this man living on? He hasn't got a pot to piss in!

Colin Peake has posted on Twitter that the Conference are still awaiting EVIDENCE that football creditors have paid. He has added 'saying that they have paid is not sufficient and KTFC are aware of this'.

Let's hope they actually take the trouble corroborate any evidence they are presented.
