The unofficial AFC Rushden & Diamonds messageboard

There was also Mr Robinson who found 5 or 6 minutes of added time at Stockport to deny us a win in the relegation season after we'd lost 5 or 6 in a row starting with the Boxing Day debacle at Orient.

Mr Coffey still gives me nightmares. I was only 11 at the time. Did he ever referee one of our games again after that? I remember reading BT's programme column in one of the subsequent games in which he said the club had made a complaint.

He is comfortably the worst i've ever seen, and probably ever will see. There was something untoward going on that day.

Coffey just brings back memories of it raining programmes from the debanke he was so poor!

Anyway highlights and interviews from Saturday here

Many thanks to Lee for editing them this week, top job!

Excellent highlights as always...still think that foul on confue was in the penalty area and should of been a penalty, good job dolman scores ;)

Superb comment at the end by Andy, and a real laugh out loud moment :lol: :lol:

Drury's take on things.

Nothing short of hilarious, some real gems in there, including...

'Drury was painted as the villain of the piece, but he insists that, although he may have looked bad, he and fellow joint chief John Chand did nothing wrong.'

“Danny Spencer was out of position and held onto the ball when he perhaps should have given it back."

“I went onto the field to try and calm the situation down."

“It may have looked bad as I was on the pitch, but I did nothing wrong.”

Love the utter delusion that him being on the pitch was a perfectly acceptable situation, just because it's him. From our perspective, this is great news. They couldn't handle the pressure on the day and even a few days later can't accept their mistakes. If they keep this up, they'll beat themselves rather than us having to do it.

:lol: The poor deluded fool! From his position, I'm surprised he could see anything other than a bunch of legs running around. Maybe he could ask John Chand to let him sit on his shoulders next time, so that he can get a proper view of what's going on.

I've met a few people with proper 'short man syndrome' but I think Graham Drury has it worse than anyone!

Danny Spencer held onto the ball?? if he did he was using Peaksy`s arms to do it, ran on the pitch then stood waving his arms in the faces of our fans, what a clown. Sure if he believed his own b ls s t he may have spent more time commenting on the game instead of trying to cover his arse.

Is that what he was doing the first time he went on the pitch, when he was "waving" at the De Banke after their equaliser?

You do the Ex Rushden & Higham Little Mann a great injustice with that comment Dave. Though to be fair Aide Mann is almost Gulliver compared to Drury (the ultimate Blockhead)
