[ Sat 6th Oct ] v Rushden & Higham Utd KO 3pm AWAY

[burger monster]

Should be a very good crowd on saturday for you guys. Think this may beat the Thrapston attendance.

What do you think???

[ron manager]

Well, this will be my first AFC game, and RDFC game since the playoffs, lost interest after 16 years or so of support due to the politics/bad management, bad performances etc.

I know of a least 3 other people this will be the first game for as well (they are coming with me ), so the only thing I think will stop it getting to 1000, is the weather.

Cant wait, coming home to our ancestral routes

Nervously excited already. Will R&H cope with the influx of fans?

BTW, anybody else think this should be a ticker-tape and balloon designated day as we don't have to clear it up? ;) :lol:

Probably a bit unfair on R&H to make them clean up a load of stuff, that said I'm sure the would appreciate the atmosphere it creates.

We certainly need to make sure that we turn the game into a home fixture in terms of the amount of noise being made. There an open terrace behind one of the goals at Hayden Road which seems like a good place to do this.

Is anyone bringing a drum?

[supersub]

Unfortunately I won't be able to make it. However the ground is at the bottom of my friends garden so she is going to be shouting on my behalf. SS

Excellent idea............I take it we will be in Yellow? If so then a Yellow pages book is going to die 8-)

For me this is the big one! Returning to Hayden Road after so many years, I can't wait. About 7 of us going and a few of those are first timers this season so based on the interest in this game I am guessing at approx 900 in attendance. Quite good terracing from the main stand down the pitch, along the bottom goal and back up the side to the old courage beer covered terrace. If we get most of our fans down that end when we are attacking that way it will be excellent. If the nets are still at the back of the terrace they make for a great place to hang flags so bring as many as possible. I was there for the fa vase 1/4 final against Hythe when there was 1400 odd in the ground and it was packed so going to be a great atmosphere on Saturday. Going for a 3-0 win with 700 away fans.

I think we'll probably play in White and Blue actually bearing in mind that R&HUFC play in Orange and Black - i.e. same colour shorts.
