The unofficial AFC Rushden & Diamonds messageboard

Hopey scored a brace and Wizz a goal in an excellent 7-1 win for Thrapston yesterday. Good start.

Rob Duffy has left Kings Lynn. I would love to see the likes of Duffy, Bell & Mills return to us one day although I suspect we won't be in a position to attract that type of player for a few years yet.

It looks like Jefferson Louis has had almost 30 different clubs - I wonder what the record is.

According to wikipedia, he seems to have had 33 clubs ( I think), even more than Trevor Benjamin (who I had no idea had a brief period at the D&D with the Doughboys in 2008):shock:

Dean McDonald was a weird one, I remember being quite impressed with him and then suddenly he was gone. Another Hill masterstroke!

Apparently he was asked to move closer to Nene Park instead of travelling each day from south London, but when he didn't do so he was shown the door

He is featured in an article in the Daily Telegraph - http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/footba ... clubs.html
