Great news guys and well done for getting this sorted, starting to get a little excited now - Robin is right though, the message needs to get out to as many people as possible - any chance of getting the ET involved in this, their support will be vital, or are they in the Cousins/Ladick back pocket?

This has already been posted but we've got the BBC:

Got to get it on the radio and TV if we can - Pressman, got any contacts in high places?

Looking forward to this, have a look at some possible future AFC R&D youth teamers (or even future seniors) and then another big meeting, once again good work saveRDFC for getting this arranged.

That's actually the press release I put out to everyone today so expecting it to be in the ET, H&P, spoke to BBC Northampton, Non league paper, along with about another 40 journalists, tweeted it, face booked it too.
Keep spreading the word!

Below is a link to the form which needs to be filled in by potential players and their parents:
