The unofficial AFC Rushden & Diamonds messageboard

John Beck claims he will get KTFC back in Tue football league. LOL,

That season ticket question also makes one wonder where the money has come from during the close season for pitch maintenance and all of the pre-season safety checks. Remember when R&D had to leave part of the PDB shut whilst awaiting problems to be sorted that were found in one of those checks. It's odd they have a home friendly so early on - which either suggests the pitch hasn't been treated in the same way it used to be, or we'll see a last minute switch to an alternative pitch.

One or two of the Trust Board members were also on the Club Board, and they were concerned about their potential liabilities of trading whilst insolvent, so what had seemed a prestige position quickly became a hot potato to them.

All I will say Formic is that I think that your comments represent a very economical version of what even you see as being the truth and, as such, are a tad unfair.
And if I had said self-serving, you would no doubt say that it was me that was being unfair!!!
You're welcome to pm me if you would like me to explain my views.

Lets hope they get the same type of response for their season ticket sales eh? ;)
