Re: [ Mon 1st Apr ] v Harborough Town, KO 3pm NPLD1M AWAY

Well, I wanted 3 points from Lboro, Hboro & Anstey and we’ve already got 4!!! What a performance that was from everyone. We outplayed them in my eyes in the first half and put in an exemplary defensive performance in the second. Harborough really do play some rotten football, route one up top th...

Re: [ Mon 1st Apr ] v Harborough Town, KO 3pm NPLD1M AWAY

I’m going into the game with a positive mindset hoping for some points, with that said, if we come away with a narrow loss at least our GD won’t be in too much trouble yet.

We need lots of singing today, get behind the lads!! Come on Rushden!

Many of the points made on this topic will enable people to have a informed opinion whether they are members or not. It also shows the strength we have as a club with our diverse supporters who help o...

Re: Returning to the Dog & Duck

There is also the issue of lost revenue with the small angry ginger man's friends and family bypassing the turnstiles by going into the ground through the clubhouse doors. I have witnessed this many times, on one occasion about a dozen of them. I would point out that "the angry, ginger man&quo...

Re: [ Sat 30th Mar ] v Loughborough Dynamo, KO 3pm NPLD1M HOME

I do believe, as many others have said, that to stay up (given the fixtures for us, Rugby, & Gresley) we need 9/9 points in our last 3 games against Boldmere, Shepshed and Walsall Wood, and at least 3 points against Lboro, Harborough, and Anstey, so 12 more points total at a minimum. Well that’...

Re: Returning to the Dog & Duck

All good points to make. To suggest that attendance would be higher at the d&d than at hayden Road is the only thing I would question. Average Attendances: Dog & Duck 12/13 - 554 (promoted from step 6) 13/14 - 471 14/15 - 550 (champions of step 5) 15/16 - 457 (reached step 4 play offs) 16/1...

Re: Returning to the Dog & Duck

My reasons are mixed and admittedly somewhat illogical. I didn't really agree with member ownership as I feel this leads to cliques and certain parties having undue influence. I know we had some very dodgy owners in the past and the developments at other clubs like Reading, Bury and Torquay have on...

Re: [ Sat 30th Mar ] v Loughborough Dynamo, KO 3pm NPLD1M HOME

The more I look at the games left for us, Rugby & Gresley the more I know that we just have to get 3 pts tomorrow. If we are in a situation after the Anstey game where we are 6+ pts from safety, I would say that would probably be that.
