"We'd like to win both sets of supporters back..."

Ahahaha! :lol: Bloody love that. Also I'm loving all the shit about the facilities. Facilities definitely win promotions. He talks about promotion this season and then says 'well it usually took me 18 months'. So which one is it? Now or in 18 months?

Why are the BBC still reporting on them BTW, they're Southern League now?!

He "errrrrrms" like Benny did. Oh and I love the bit about his success at Cambridge and Preston, those were 20 years ago! 20 years!

It didn't work last season when Sadact tried luring our fans there, and it DEFINITELY won't work this following season.

If there was any Rushden fans who attended last season, and intend to go there this year (doubt there are any).. then they never were true R&D fans, a true R&D fan would never even contemplate going to watch that shower of shite!

Shitty little club coming from a shitty little plastic stadium, I hate them and everything they stand for, especially nene park!
I can't work out who he / she is talking about, I presume he / she is referring to the Poppies? :lol: :lol:

Just goes to show what a deluded world he lives in now. I wonder if he's been talking to HT & KC ? They MUST know it's not going to happen whilst it's still called KTFC and we have breath in our bodies.

I think someone should ask Arthur Mann how many Diamonds games he attended in the late nineties early 2000's......... ;)

He'd like to think they can win both sets of supporters back? Why are some people so desperate to believe the shite that is spun them? Whatever we think of him, Beck is a football man who's been involved in the game for a long time, so surely he has a modicum of understanding when it comes to the minds of the average football fan. There is no way on this earth that Rushden fans will will go and watch that shower, we've moved on, our club is still alive and doing very nicely thank you.

I think their bigger challenge will be trying to convince those who supported the previous incarnation of their club to come back. Despite the news this week being regarded as positive by those who are going to follow the 2012 version, there has been a complete lack of any noises from the likes of Simon De Choisy or other prominent ex-supporters that they will now come along to games at Nene Park.

I see the topic of football insolvency is in the press - perhaps it might spur HMRC into action before their 14 days appeal period against the Poppies CVA is up - http://www.insolvencynews.com/article/1 ... olvencies-
