The unofficial AFC Rushden & Diamonds messageboard

The battle might be lost, but the war remains to be won. A dark pall has descended over Nene Park as the forces of darkness move in, but the resistance fights on.

You been watching Star Wars again Robin? :lol:

if the news tonight is true, thats why KC has appealed.

Perhaps KC is just using the appeal as bargaining chip to get Ladak to pay up the rent. I have a feeling IL may be on the verge of pulling out over costs - basically Kett will have no where to play next season, no management or team, R&D will be bust and NP empty.

The only ones laughing in all of this are Northampton Town. The Conference, Beasants, KC et al could effectively kill off two senior sides in one county.

I wish someone would come clean and say who it is that has actually appealed, the lack of information is....................what am I saying, its business as normal ;)

Surely as just Landlord KC has no right of appeal, whats it to do with him, he doesn't own the club (does he? :? )? I understand it isn't the Beasants - so who who the hell are the "Diamonds Officials" referred to in the BBC article http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/13856120.stm plus it says we are lodging an appeal in the first sentence, then a few paragraphs down it says we're considering it - so what is the bloody truth - journos just making it up?? !! Fed up with it all now in truth, too many bloody games and too little bloody information !!!

according to the OWS we have not only appealed to the Conference Board, we have also appealled to the Football Association.

sorry, didn't copy the link, i'm sure someone will oblige........

It's no rumour, KC told us exactly that at the forum last week.

I couldn't make the forum as my boss forgets I have a home life. Thanks anyway
