The unofficial AFC Rushden & Diamonds messageboard

I'm firmly against the suggestion of a League 2 North and South division. Financially it would probably benefit many of the clubs, although (without actually looking into the locations of all the clubs involved) there's a likelihood that we would be on the cusp of the North-South divide meaning that we could be in the opposite league to K*ttering or Luton and Oxford and thus lose out on substantial gate receipts each season.

Also, I think regionalising the leagues will cheapen them somewhat, and they'll lose a lot of their appeal. Plus I've really enjoyed trips to the likes of Barrow in the North, and Torquay in the South.

not a bad shout, BUT, that then destroys the buzz of non-league teams goin up into the footbal league!
