You could have 140 years of no achievement, or twenty years of glorious victories, you decide.

I wouldn't read it if it was free. I only used to get it on a Monday for our sport section and I stopped doing that about five years ago.
R.I.P Dale. We will never forget you.

But would people actually come to watch K*ttering even if they were successful? We were unbelievably good the season before last, and our attendances only went up by a few hundred - if that!

We had to accept that we were in such a rural place we were never going to attract decent attendances, that's going to be the same with K*ttering. The amount of fans they lose in the move will probably be offset by the amount that decide to go from Diamonds, and they'll have the same home crowds they got last season. Will that be enough at Nene Park? I doubt it, but then we don't know how deep IL's pockets are.

The true test will be the cold wet evenings in the period October to February. ;)

Sadly its a fact of life that if they are successful on the pitch they will get good crowds.

I bought the Et today because I saw the front cover and had to read it to believe it. Ladak is the biggest ****ing hypocrite and has not one ounce of shame. Parading smuggly in the press with the keys to his new home.....edited, I know you're angry but that was unnecessary and unacceptable...., it has nothing to do with history, they're there now they can do want the f*** they want with it, that seems to be the precedent by which you do business. And calling the the DeBanke the Dale Roberts Stand; desperate and pathetic.

Just to clarify, DF can see what other mods have done also. Therefore no-one removed anything! ;)
