The unofficial AFC Rushden & Diamonds messageboard

Not sure we will get much joy from these matches.
Barton v Aylesbury
Hanwell v Egham
Royston v Leighton

I'm fully expecting us to be 3rd and just 1 point ahead of Royston after tonight's matches!

But this is a very unpredictable league, but this set of fixtures should go to form ! Massive game for us on Saturday!

If I was a betting man, i'd have 2-1 Egham thanks to an injury time winner. I have lost count of the amount of times they've won in the last minute.

If I was a betting man I say it is time the odds went against them. The bookie never loses!

Just been through Egham's last 8 games and I reckon they have gained 10 points by scoring in the last 5 minutes or injury time. They say it balances itself out over a season so they are due for a massive dip in form and fortune.

Aylesbury are certainly one to watch too, they've won 4 out of their last 5 and if they were to win their 4 games in hand would go above us. Not that I expect them to win those games, cause I don't, but them and Northwood might just start to make our top 5 position look a little less secure if they carry on their form.

10 mins gone Royston lead 1-0.
30 mins Leighton down to 10 men. Royston miss penalty
46 mins 2-0

We can forget any hopes of a Leighton comeback.

Barton v Aylesbury 0-0 h/t

Egham 2-0 up at Hanwell h/t

Both Royston and Egham winning 2-0 ..... !

Callum Adebiyi scored for them on Saturday v Aylesbury Utd and Gary Connolly also played in that game. Signs of discord in the club? maybe the club don't want promotion but some of the players still have ambition.
