Yep its a ****ing bizarre picture and I wish it was photoshopped, but they say it isn't.

Re: Car Boot
I'd like to point out that the car boot WAS run by the football club until Recently otherwise it would be the Landlord that owes money to Stewards for lack of wages and not the football Club.

Re: Car Boot
But the stewards, like many of the other matchday staff were contracted to the Football Club and paid by them for working at the car boot. This was the case with any event that needed turnstile staff or stewards, the pay was always paid by RDFC Ltd. That's why we've all now received written notice of redundancy by the administrators with forms to claim our pay, possible compensation and redundancyLanky_Diamond wrote:I'd like to point out that the car boot WAS run by the football club until Recently otherwise it would be the Landlord that owes money to Stewards for lack of wages and not the football Club.

Re: Car Boot
I went down to the Car Boot today. A few of the R&D badge signage has been taken down. Majority left up though so whether they've been nicked.
I can also confirm that 'that' picture of the AirWair Stand was not photoshopped and the seats do now read KTFC.. :(
Another notice I thought about was the bricks in the floor outside the Strikers Bar.. What will happen to these considering some of them say 'Forever a Diamond' 'RDFC For Life' or whatever..

Re: Car Boot
Can I just remind people, including our own fund raisers, not wishing to knock them or anything! But attending or selling at the car boot sales at Nene Park is putting money in to the pockets of the guy who effectively was responsible for the demise of RDFC, enough said!

Re: Car Boot
Spending £1 to park legally was the top of our agenda, followed by being on the look out for sellable items - considering we have an antiques and collectibles business to run.. I don't think this £1 will affect the coffers too much!bedforddiamond wrote:Can I just remind people, including our own fund raisers, not wishing to knock them or anything!

Well said BD, how on earth any R&DFC fan could part with a single penny knowing full well it was going his way is beyond me. :evil:bedforddiamond wrote:Can I just remind people, including our own fund raisers, not wishing to knock them or anything!

Well said guys. I won't ever set foot in or around NP again and if that means missing out on the CBS then so be it.
