I for one, don't blame K*ttering for our demise, but that doesn't mean I can't take great pleasure in seeing K*ttering lose, a rivalry doesn't just die when a club does.Diamondsarentforever wrote:IVe been reading this forum for quite some time. As a bunch of fans its a real shame to see just how bitter and twisted you are towards K*ttering, because your club wasnt run properly? How is that K*ttering's fault. I think the majority of real K*ttering fans, wouldnt wish the death of RDFC, perhaps (and Im sure you would return this) a slow demorolising fall down the leagues into obscurity and the occasional thumping in a cup match. We lost a big gate with you going pop. But for a club who is supposed to be about the community, theres not many community friendly folk on here?BedfordDiamond2 wrote: if K*ttering only brought 8 fans though that is absolutely shocking!
I am a K*ttering fan who wishes your new venture all the best, but when you have a 36 page thread relating to a team who you 'hate'... seems a bit sad really doesnt it?
And yes there might have only been 8 hardy souls at Newport last night... but thats 8 more than you will ever get in the conference again!
And youve deserted your community to move down the road to Raunds. Where is the difference there then? Still as it stands we do exist, so theres no tears to be shed. Not many of your 1,200 followers must be shedding a tear either since about 1/6 now support you. :roll:Biggles wrote: We are community friendly but Kettrin is not our community, Kettrin Town have deserted their town and community and will cease to exist without a tear shed from the locals in East Northants.

I'm sure the majority of your fans would have been the same, had it been you who went bust instead of us.
The reason our supporters are so bitter and twisted towards your fans, is because of your fans actions towards our supporters every time we visited Rockinghorse Road, I understand that not all your supporters are the same, but its just the bad element that seem to rear their ugly heads.

The facts are:
Were in the conference and if the league ended this second, despite how bad weve been, we would still be in the conference!
But the league doesnt end this second...
We had 8 fans at Newport. You had no fans anywhere!
That's not strictly true there was two in my living room last night.
We are in the FA cup your not!
Oh really? No way! Never mind eh, always next year.
We as a club (not me, im quite interested in your AFCRD thing you lot love) dont care about you!Yet you practically comment on everyone one of our games.
Be rude not to.
We have a team to watch on a Saturday, you dont.
Are we not allowed to leave our homes on Saturday then? I'm off to St Neots this weekend.
Clear enough?
Not really.
About that, it may only be a temporary home, if you had been to any of the AFC meetings (which I very much doubt).. we did discuss moving to Hayden Road in RUSHDEN but were advised against it by the league. Due to the fact that Rushden & Higham already have an under 18s side.. and we'd be third in line for matches, Raunds seemed the most viable option at the time.Diamondsarentforever wrote:And youve deserted your community to move down the road to Raunds.

I can understand that but all clubs have an 'element'. We are no prouder of ours than anyone else and the friendly at RR was a disgrace. As it was this was years and years ago now, is it really that bad?
