Talks of the merger in there, lets not forget that the Diamonds fans don't want it either! I'm hoping we can find new investors/owners this week and all the money raised can go to the smoother running of the club.
There's only one Dale Roberts, one Dales Roberts, there's only one Dale ROBERTS! R.I.P

The merger is a red herring anyway and the ET keep plugging it as they fear both Clubs will be gone within the next year.
If anybody read the NLP interview with Sadact, Kettrin were not proposing a merger they were proposing taking over the use of Nene Park with R+D being bust and gone.
The 'Kettrin Diamonds' name was just to try and placate the locals of East Northants and hopefully placate Kettrin fans that Kettrin was the main team.
Also i wonder if under Conference or F.A rules they would no be able to use the name 'Kettrin Town' as this implies the team plays in Kettrin which it would of course not do so.

Not over to the fat lady sings, the club may have to seek an Administration order to protect itself which does not mean its over by any means.Olly wrote:Bugger, so this is it then, its over unless we get literally a miracle

I hope for that, but doesn't that mean we get automatically relegated 2 divisions, which in itself could spell the end of the club unless we figure something out regarding NP.Biggles wrote:Not over to the fat lady sings, the club may have to seek an Administration order to protect itself which does not mean its over by any means.Olly wrote:Bugger, so this is it then, its over unless we get literally a miracle

No, admin means minus 10 points for next year, although I think as we have no assets it won't stay in admin long!
I think it needs someone to take over with some deep pockets, Clearly the debts incurred are way too much and anyone thinking about taking over wouldn't want them anyway.
It's been a great effort by the real fans, clearly the local community as a whole are not that fussed, what it does show is that a Phoenix club is very much a possibility and probably more manageable!
