The unofficial AFC Rushden & Diamonds messageboard

David Deeney has just confirmed that he has signed on-loan for Holbeach to me on Twitter! Do they know what they've let themselves in for???

This is an interesting one if true. A club top of the league with the biggest budget in the division feel the need to bring into their dressing room a player who recently received a bigger ban than Luis Suarez. You'd have thought they'd have many options if they want to strengthen their illustrious squad, not sure why they're going down this route. If Deeney's 'problems' happen to resurface (and on Twitter where he expresses his anger it will be easy to see if they do) then Holbeach risk being dragged in and their reputation being put on the line.

Also interesting that it's said to be a loan - in the period where they'll be coming to the D&D...

what is the story on David Deeney?

We had his brother Ash here at the start of the season.

I think Dave managed to upset people at Davenrty, K*ttering at St.Ives last season

He's a follow up

When it comes to sandwiches I'm not sure he even makes the picnic

Think in this modern world of being PC, we would have to refer to him as a complex character with issues, where as in the good old days we could have just called him a f......... .............c

Some stories going round about some possible playing staff changes at Holbeach, going out rather than in?? anyone know anything or is it pre match Fenland bull s..t

Wouldn't be surprised - its a merry-go-round up in there in the Fens. Probably bring a few more ringers in from Spalding. I notice that one of the Oadby lot - Courtney Meade? - has already jumped (or pushed) to Stockings new boys at Shepshed. They are probably panicking after being thrashed by PNS.

If true the timing is interesting, as this is the time that clubs start discussions about whether to submit an application for promotion, as the deadline is in the next month or so - e.g. http://www.clubwebsite.co.uk/sunpostalf ... iew/865464

Has Carter's Park passed its ground-grading? I'm more worried about Huntingdon to be honest.
