The unofficial AFC Rushden & Diamonds messageboard

Oh and Simon, you should come - it'll save me looking for a cat to kick IF things don't go well ;)

Been incredibly busy at work this week and I hadn't really given the game much thought. However now the weekend's here and i've caught up with the posts i'm nervous as hell!!!

Regardless of the result tomorrow, I'll be in no fit state to type, so in light of this and regardless of the result, I'd like to offer my thanks to the players, management, staff, volunteers, chairman and board members. Thank you for giving me my club back and than you for making me proud to be a Rushden & Diamond supporter again.

Well said. This season has been a breath of fresh air after many rocky season and then nothing. Done more away's than ever this season (easier I know) cheaper enrance fee's and for goals per pounds ratio, well worth it!

Yeah its been a fantastic season of what I've managed to see of it. Never thought I'd enjoy watching football at places like Olney, Thrapston or Oadby, but I really have, its been good fun going to all these funny little places. And the football has been pretty good at times, lots of goals, a good chance of winning every game and some cracking games as well, whatever happens we can say its been a great first season.

Though that's not to say I wouldn't be absolutely gutted if we lost tomorrow and didn't go up, cause I would be, fingers crossed we should be okay, though it'll be tense at times tomorrow I fear.

Strangely enough I'm not at all nervous, I'm confident in our team's ability to get the right result. It's been a terrific season, better than I'd hoped for so anything above my expectation is a bonus.

I wouldn't say I'm nervous right now, but come 5 to 3 tomorrow, I'll probably be nervous, maybe even as nervous as I was for the playoffs.

Someone tried to kill our club off, we didn't let them. I'm PROUD AS HELL.
It's OUR CLUB, OUR HISTORY, ONE FAN, ONE VOTE, ONE COMMUNITY, ONE CLUB.
Our team can and shall hold it's head high, cos we'll be carrying it, whatever the result.
No nerves, let's DO IT with the team.

I have total confidence in our players, but recent decisions have had a massive impact on us and we can't legislate for that !! Nerves are jangling !!
