The unofficial AFC Rushden & Diamonds messageboard

Apparently is rumoured to be going to grimsby according to confguide

He could do better than that to be honest.

I thought Grimsby more than Gateshead was the likely destination

i also notice Gash says he's now looking for a new club.

Whilst of course they were all released at the end of the season, you always think perhaps they have all been told they would be resigned if it gets sorted, however when they haven't been paid then you aren't going to have any loyalty whatsoever.

if anyone is in doubt as to the task we face it is massive!,

To be honest if we get through this we will have a very low budget anyhow so most of the team will be ex Youth Players with maybe a couple of players with some experience.

Whay we are doing now is the start of a very, very long haul.

Yep, if we were to be in the BSP next season or even the BSN I imagine we'll be facing a relegation fight and will be lucky to survive it, could be similar to Weymouth, at least we'll have a club to support but with no budget and the task of building a team completely from scratch, Justin will have a ridiculously difficult job to do, its just sad to think that not long ago we were looking towards getting back into the FL and now that's a million miles away, if RDFC does survive as it is it'll be a tough few years :(

If O'Connor could finish then the sky would be the limit for that lad. He gets in the positions and he should score more goals.

Even on current ability I think he is a League Two player. He's wasting his time at Gateshead certainly.

Well he used to be able to finish as hid Gresley record shows. Althought that was at a lower level, his natural abilty has made the step up

Gateshead were doing well at the back end of the season though, I wouldn't be surprised if they challenged for the play-offs next season.

Apparently coming up in the et tomorrow porter admits his future probably is away from rushden :(
Am finding it difficult not to get frustrated at our current situation, there's no updates from anyone although I don't think there is anyone to step up!
