I counted about 120 last night. I had a quick look at the Rothwell forum before the game yesterday and they were calling it their biggest game of the season! They were also hoping that a few hundred scum fans would turn up to cheer them on against us, until I pointed out that most of them don't bother going to their own first team games any more! :lol:STAGMAN wrote:We also had an excellent turn out of fans as well , i believe the crowd was bigger last night than Rowl often for a first team again with a lot of Rushden faces, i would think it was over a 100

Re: Youth match tonight
I recognise the name but don't recall seeing him play. Due to league games usually being played on Wednesday afternoons now, I haven't been able to see as many as I'd like this season (bastard job :evil: ;) ).BartonRaz wrote:Dave, has Justin Dowling been playing?
I know him as he lives in Barton and went to my school, and i've noticed him appearing in youth team photo's as of late.
He was at MK Dons.

He is by far the best player in that age group...the only under16 who's been with our youth set-up since the start!davealbon wrote:Jerry Nash (one of the U16s) were the pick of the bunch.
Re: Youth match tonight
Two trialists from MK Dons, Justin Dowling and Troy Farden have both played about four or five games over the past couple of months, although neither played in the Ipswich game this afternoon.BartonRaz wrote:Dave, has Justin Dowling been playing?

Nah, they aren't. Aaron King was superb, hence why he got his move to Liverpool!davealbon wrote:
Having said that, I don't think this seasons 1st years or U16s are as good as last seasons, but you never know how quickly some of them might progress in their final year (and I haven't seen as much of the youths this season as I have in previous years).
