You''ll have to ask. Not a bad CV there - of course with the teams in order of quality start to end ;-)

And of course our own Lewi Williams (although it has his current club listed as Corby, as he plays for them as well).

Yes Lewi was listed in the programme (as Corby Town/AFC Rushden & Diamonds), although he wasn't actually there.

Game finished 0-0 and probably a fair result. Some pretty good football, played at a good pace in blustery conditions, on a hard/dusty pitch.

Small 4 page Programme/Team Sheet, that one of the Northamptonshire FA chaps were handing out.



And from the Squad list you'll see a few familiar names.

does anyone know if the dick munns listed in the programme is the dick munns who played for rushden town in the 1960,s?
