Not strictly correct. Peter Bone is MP for Wellingborough and Rushden.
Mrs.Louise Mensch represents the parliamentary district of Corby and East Northamptonshire.
East Northants Council is the local authority which encompasses Rushden, Higham Ferrers, Irthlingborough and surrounding villages. ;)

Mensch is a waste of space and time. Lost any respect I had for her when she publically backed the lights switch off only to turn around and say she was against it once people complained.

Chris Mallender is the reason Corby is thriving.

He attends every Corby FC home match and when they had the floodlight problem against Kiddy I saw him helping to carry plastic safety barriers to put around the base of the pylon.

Back to the OT and Darlos plight. Another excellent article on twohundredpercent.
Sounds pretty familiar doesn't it and perhaps the Quakers fans should be seriously thinking about forming AFC Darlington.

So they're losing double what we were effectively. Keith Cousins said he was putting £450k of his own money in each year didn't he? That's 37.5k a month. They're losing 80k a month. Considering they're barely paying any rent on the stadium, where on earth is the money going?!

Sounds like game over at this point for them but anything can happen in football.

Their only saving grace is there is no mention of a long list of creditors banging on their door for payment so at least Singh must be honouring their debts which, sadly, was not the case with our old club and hastened our demise. :evil:

For now, there's still six months of £80k losses to come before the end of the season and maybe Singh might feel like he doesn't want to keep shovelling cash into the black hole by that point.

So Singh could sell the club today and say it's debt free. Whether any potential buyer would fall for that who knows. Perhaps the Bee-zants are looking for another venture? :roll:

Depends upon the utility bills for the stadium though.
