I see AFC Rushden & Diamonds as a continuation of the old club, not an entirely new seperate club, sure, on paper that's what it is... but mentally & emotionally we're the same fans following the same club.

K*ttering Town FC is gone, I don't see why they can't just face up to the fact their club is dead. Move on from pricks like Ladak ruining your club, help with the new club, and get back to the good times. Why would you put yourself through such pain and misery when you know the end is inevitable.

Incorrect. The FA acknowledged us, along with AFC Croydon Athletic, as a reformed club in the document where the 2012/13 pyramid placings were announced.

Some KTFC fans consider, rather strangely, that if their club goes out of business and ceases to exist then what's gone before i.e. the precious '140 year history' then this has been lost and the fans have wasted their time watching them in the first place. History, in my opinion, can never be airbrushed out and the memories good and bad can be always be remembered irrespective of how the FA perceives reformed and phoenix clubs.

their twitter account already has 3000 followers, over twice as many as our account has got, don't know whether that's a good indication or not
Not really, I don't tweet as I guess a few more of our supporters don't 8-)

Who's twitter account are we talking about? KFC have 70 followers and KTFC have just over 1500 followers. :shock:

Completely agree, memories will always remain and their history would always remain as well, it would just be a closed history.

That's strange. There's another one @Kettfc with 70 followers. I knew they were divided but why have two twitter accounts? :shock:
