The unofficial AFC Rushden & Diamonds messageboard

Won final game 7-0 to put them 3 points and 3 goals ahead of NIrvana on GD.

But what have Nirvana done at Eynsbury?

Nirvana won 2-1 but AFC Kempston win the league on goal difference by 2 goals.

Not sure if the was a delay at Rovers or a tactical late start to see how many goals they needed, Nirvana result along with all others in UCL posted by 4.45, Kempston's appeared at just after 5.00, glad they won the league though and didn't set the unwanted record of 1 defeat in 42 and not be champions. See Welly survived after a win against a team of replacement's due to a stag weekend.

And by all accounts celebrated as if they had won the World Cup, Champions League, Turner Prize, Eurovision Song Contest, Miss World and Masterchef all at the same time.

Jake Newman scored a brace for the Doughboys.

Step 4 not working for him again?

It was an excellent effort by Kempston after they saw Nirvana put 7 past Holbeach in midweek, when they might have expected Holbeach to give Nirvana a good game....

Jake has actually been playing and scoring at Step 3 in the NPL for Stamford AFC, after joining them from Spalding United before Christmas, but they completed their league fixtures over a week ago and have now been relegated to Step 4 level. He has also played a number of games for Wellingborough this season and is obviously dual registered.

Ah fair enough! Nice to see him helping out where he can - they weren't far off relegation. Lucky Huntingdon are that bad!
