The unofficial AFC Rushden & Diamonds messageboard

Saw a half strength Oadby Town side play at Harborough Town last night and look very very impressive. They won 3-2 but really they were miles ahead of Harborough and only conceeded two late goals as they made huge changes and switched off (Rob Barnett scored both Harboroughs after coming on as a sub, he scored over 30 goals last season in division 1)

Oadby will be right up there at the end of the season they have class through out the side, are not afraid to mix it physically, and are paying some big money to big local leicester names.

Harborough are playing a lot of friendlies, they have Corby tonight. 2 games in 2 days pushing it a bit.

PSF's are a bit misleading sometimes.............I don't really see them as an indicator of a season ahead, as so many changes are made and different tactics employed to give the manager an idea of his best 11.

we may lose all the rest of our PSF's but it won't make one bit of difference to our league campaign 8-)

They beat a Histon XI 4-0 last week which I understand was mainly an u19 side.
