Jon Dunham is tweeting that there is an agreement in place for this weekend's game to be played at Steel Park. The agreement is for just this one game.
Ladak was "ill" so left Richie Jeune to do the deal - I hope Corby are getting money up-front to cover the costs they claim KTFC will pick up.
Jeune has tweeted "HUGE thanks to Corby chairman, their board , the council and the Corby fans for making this sat game possible" - I wonder if the Corby fans know they have given their consent.

He can't stop then from playing at Corby if they want to. Can't wait to see what squad they put out on Saturday!

Re: Desperate measures.....
They're helped by the fact that after Saturday their next home game isn't until the 24th, so they've got more than a fortnight to either sort out NP or get a deal done for Steel Park. I wonder if Cousins will just let them wriggle away and develop the site.

Will be interesting to see what the attendance is on Saturday. I reckon we'll still get more than they do!

Well as much as I want to see them go bust, more for moral reasons than rivalry I have to say fair to play to them for actually managing to arrange this and put together a 'squad' for Saturday, I'm genuinely surprised that they're gonna play again. Though, having said that, while now the Ploppy fans may be slightly upbeat for the first time in months, I wonder how upbeat they will be come 5pm Saturday following a hiding (they'll do well to keep the score in single figures considering the fact that most of their team will be UCL standard players) and a probably a 'crowd' of about 200/300 in yet another town that isn't K*ttering. And it will all seem like a complete waste of time if they can't sort a takeover out.

They ought to get a really good turnout of those who want KTFC to be saved, to show any potential investor its worth taking the plunge. We'll really see what their "history" really means to them on Saturday.diamondgeezer1 wrote:Will be interesting to see what the attendance is on Saturday. I reckon we'll still get more than they do!
