Hmm....

Nevertheless, like yesterday's news, if true, it changes nothing. This should not divert the focus from building a phoenix club.

This is probably why the appeal was made to the conference.

I'm just sick of the games which are being played out in the boardrooms of various teams and business' at this moment in time.

Who ever is in control of the club is in danger of alienating the fan base.

If somehow the club was saved and somehow it started next season in the conference there would be a very large part of me reluctant of following the club anymore.

Because of what has gone on and how certain people have nailed their colors to the flag pole in trying to kill the club and move K*ttering in I feel if the current Diamonds team was saved it wouldn't feel like mine anymore.

Its become just a pawn in a game of chess played out by KC over the last 12 months.

I think out future is away from Nene Park.

I agree with that. After seeing all of the squad and JE leave and treated like shit, the stadium being touted around and local businesses and our own fans screwed, going back into the 'dirtied' stadium would feel wrong.

I guess maybe it's more like 30k a month or something, somedays the costs are probaly much higher than other days. The 1k a day is probaly an average :?

I guess the business rates are high. I wonder if the rateable value was ever appealed or discounts sought for the areas of the stadium not in use?

Where would you rather die, RR or NP?
