The unofficial AFC Rushden & Diamonds messageboard

AWSOME..........first chance i got to see the mighty afc r&d tonight ,and after the last few results i thought uh oh but i have to say on tonights performance i see a big rosey future .the lads are keen and mark has done a terrific job,and id like to thank all involved in getting US to this point. a massive pat on the back. and big thanks to thrapston for putting on a strong performance.....................CMON YOU WHITES

Totally agree, I thoroughly enjoyed that, some really entertaining play at times, its all coming together nicely and if you think how long Mark has had to get us this far it truly is amazing what has been achieved.

I'm loving this, in a perverse kind of way I'm enjoying this more than last season........I am odd mind ;)

Agreed. They played some excellent football on a difficult pitch. The team is really starting to come together

I was amazed at the difference a few weeks makes, so of the play and moves were better than anything we saw last season, mark has worked miracles.

Some really good lads out there tonight who could make a claim for a first team place next season..................I was so happy, watching football and drinking a pint 8-)

Yeah a definite improvement and some superb attacking play reminiscent of our great legends teams at times, I really enjoyed the lads putting great passes behind their defence then actually running on to it. A little loose sometimes but that's to be expected with youngsters, we rode our luck and created loads more chances. I thought Lewis Williams nearly broke the goalframe with that thunderbolt in the second half!! We have proper wingers again !! YAAAAYYY. We also seem to have some players with skill on the ball, and I really liked the look of the little coloured lad who came on 2nd half (was he a Raunds player?). Exciting times.
Me and 3 others clubbing together to sponsor a players home kit - put us down for number 9 please

Does anyone know if Lewi Williams is signed on and due to play on a regular basis? I know he was involved with R&H, it would be great to have him playing for us this season as he is a exciting player to watch and he seems to make things happen!

I think he's with Corby Town.

Tap him up! ;)

He could play for both, Corby Town is in a different league, they would let him play. Its not the same corby side that's in the Northampton youth league.
But I think he's still signed on with Rushden and Higham.
