I see Sadact as just a fool who was blinded by the Glittering chandeliers of Nene Park and signed up to a Lease that was all in Favour of KC such was his desperation to move in. I don't believe for a minute he was standing up for us as he wanted us gone so he could move in, i can see him on the day he got the keys having orgasms in the Boardroom thinking he was clever, the only clever person was KC getting the muppet to Sign a Lease that would kill KTFC.

I'd say he saw an opportunity for a nice shiny new stadium and with our demise the opportunity to latch on to a few floating fans - I don't think he thought for one minute that fans could get as organised as we have and create a credible football team in such a short space of time.

The next few weeks/months will be interesting for them, the news of the Corby groundshare opportunity and RJ's departure have really thrown a pebble into the pond, can they survive this latest debacle? Who knows, its a very tangled web over there isn't it?

He was a regular visitor at Nene Park on non-match days well before the Beasants came on the scene.

Any suggestion that Ladak sticking up for R&D at the conference meeting being anything short of opportunistic is laughable. I don't doubt he spoke up on our behalf, but he knew along with everyone else it was already a lost cause. His calculation was based upon the KTFC / NP agreement being all but signed off, and he was still trying to curry favour with Diamonds fans who he thought would be fickle enough to jump ship and support his shower. Nothing but politicking and a shameless effort at that.

So Ritchie sensibly proposes to groundshare with Corby and unsurprisingly gets kicked out by the 'shareholders'? Uhm could that have anything to do with KC and CH needing football to be played at NP until 2015 failing which the ground returns to Max?

KC stooge Helen Thompson as interim chairperson me thinks and a desperate plea for the poppies to continue at NP.

Oh dear oh dear. You have to feel sorry for the fans but with liquidation staring them in the face - again - surely now is the time to cut their losses and do what we have had to do!

Also having read PoppyNet today it would appear the Poppies are fucked thanks to their own fans.

This was the week to organise a fight back and show Ladak what they really think of him by staying away from the game and hurting him in the pocket.

Having torpedoed the move to Corby, the fans still seem to think going to the game and handing their money over to Ladak is the way forward.

The response this week sums them up, they haven't got a collective bone in their bodies, they should be coming together, now is the time to break away and start again but they seem more interested in fighting each other.

Even if it is correct, and KTFC left then KC would just let some local pub team play there if he couldn't get someone else to have a stab at East Northants Utd. There will always be a way for he who has more twists than a twisty turny thing.

I am more interested in whether IL is on board with KC or whether he has been stitched up good and proper. I am starting to think the Ladaks been had by KC and has him by the balls over the lease, hence the reason he doesn't want to leave NP. I think KC is too clever to need to share the spoils of NP with Ladak.

I think the best result for KTFC and R&D supporters is a shoot out at the OK Corral type moment in an Essex car park involving Ladak, Ray & Jay, Rolls, Thompson, KC and the Hills in which no one is left standing.
