The unofficial AFC Rushden & Diamonds messageboard

obviously seeing the match kick off 8-)

seeing the PDB Terrace back 8-)

seeing so many fans meeting up with old friends again

hearing some great singing at a football match again :P

seeing all the smiling faces

but most of all, the RWhites lemonade Ice lolly that Darren B handed out to the stewards, that was sooooooooowelcome :lol: :lol:

1) That guy at the back of the PDB who spent most of the second half abusing the keeper. He got at least 3 big laughs from the fans in and around the terrace, especially "does the council cut your hair?".

2) Celebrations after the 1st and 2nd goals.

3) There's only one Dale Roberts in the second half.

4) That guy who had his beer spilled all over his front before the kick-off by the errant warm-up shot. I felt sorry for him but it was quite funny. :lol:

What about the lad, BartonRaz's old mate, who took a full hit below the belt in the first few minutes from Aynsley's clearance!

How could I've forgot that, that was hilarious! :lol:

How on earth do you know that? I'm not sure I've spoken to the guy in 7/8 years and I think he rarely attends games.

Was funny though. ;)

Ivor's lad, Graham, who I used to stand with on the PDB. Didn't you used to play in the same team as him?

I can see the "Does the council cut your hair?" chant becoming the norm at the D&D :roll: :roll:

I think it was in the first minute actually, it looked bloody painful, lovely start to our first ever game :lol:

I'd say my highlight would be seeing a packed PDB and hearing some old favourite chants, Northamptonshire is wonderful, Hi Ho Rushden & Diamonds, Dale's chant etc, it was slightly surreal to be hearing them again after all this time but awesome. Either that or just thinking to myself how great it was to be watching the Diamonds again on a Saturday afternoon constantly

Just being there, and experiencing one hell of an occassion Thanks to everyone that made today possible, love you all. SS
