An unusual feature of the stadium are the model Brian Talbots in each corner, to deter children from nesting in the roof. Although on 15th June 2011, the K*ttering chairman Imraan Ladak confirmed the club were looking into the possibility of moving to Nene Park and will merge with Rushden and Diamonds to play under the name of K*ttering Diamonds FC. Northampton Town will continue to be the most despised club in the county of Northamptonshire
:lol: :D :lol:

This is the start of the wiki too: Nene Park is the home ground of K*ttering reserves football club.

I really must be missing a point somewhere, how do they think they can make Nene Park work for them when they get no more to watch them than RDFC?

I think they might actually. Ladak will strive to get the facilities to 'sweat', where as it seems to be that Cousins didn't really give a toss because he didn't need to.

I think your right, ladak is savvy when it comes to being flash and entertaining, he does like the limelight and although he struggles from time to time with cash flow he has kept Poppies afloat somehow. He is also prominent and is not scared to make decisions (some crap like MM)

KC was sitting back supposedly collecting the rent (however much it was supposed to be) whereas our new owners Mr L Beasant and Mr G Calder where going to use the asset, and have myriad events happening at regular times - never happened under those two and went even further back when Mr S Beasant came on board.

Ladak will concentrate on corporate events I feel and I can see the youth using the facilities to the max where as our youth were at Sharnbrook, Oundle and Raunds in recent years running up costs!

My biggest gripe is KC leaving it too late to bail out the club, Beasants just not being capable/competent/visible - and of course the dreadful decision to hand over the reigns to new owners who lacked credible qualifications and expertise, we now find the club being used as a political football and we have become a laughing stock within football realms for reasons totally beyond the fans control!

I also totally resent not being kept briefed by owners and having to learn things in the press/internet!
