The unofficial AFC Rushden & Diamonds messageboard

As i predicted at the start of the window, we still have Lee Tomlin. Oh how i would love to say that at 12.01am tomorrow morning.

Realistically though, it is looking like Tommo, Curtis Osano, and Dale Roberts may leave today.

The window in England shuts at 5.00pm, but shuts at 12.00 midnight in Scotland. Because both Falkirk and Celtic have been linked to Tomlin, this means we can't rest until the morning!

That last point is a real bugger, I was hoping to be able to go to the pub tonight not having to worry anymore.

I don't think we'll lose all three.... I just don't think life would be that cruel to us. ;)


I think Roberts will go with us finding a replacement, Tomlin will go with no replacement coming in, and Osano will stay.

Will probably turn out to be the complete opposite now.

I think you're probably right.

Having watched the Hamilton v Celtic game in the H&Y bar on Saturday, Tommo should definitely avoid going to Scotland. He's far too good even for the Scottish Premier League.

Celtic signed two players already. Hopefully they won't make it 3.

Well, if we are looking for money Jacko didn't do us any favours at the weekend:

Leading scorer Simeon Jackson missed a host of chances on his 100th Gillingham appearance as Walsall earned a point.

Hardly going to put him in the shop window is it? I was really hoping he'd move on somewhere for a pile of sell-on clause cash !!

Stimson has said that the speculation has been affecting Jacko.

I seem to remember he went missing for periods in a Diamonds shirt.

Stimson has lost the plot down there, he does whatever the fans tell him to.

Yeah he did, could be a bit annoying at times, but with that much class and ability, we couldn't really complain!

Crystal palace is one to keep an eye on, now they've sold Moses

They are financially in the shit though, so maybe all the money from his sale will be required for debt payments etc?
