The unofficial AFC Rushden & Diamonds messageboard

Now I'm slowly coming back to the fold, what is the long term plan in terms of ground, is it to say in Welly or finally look to get a tidy ground back in Rushden??

No, not yet, but I guess I have no reason not to be, I live in Brackley, so getting to meets can sometimes be a pain and an expense, but I suppose I could raise it on the members forum, if peps would like to keep it under wraps for now.

I think that would be the best way to find out or speak to Ralph at any game.

All the gen from the Members Forums are passed on to those who can't attend so please don't let your location put you off being a member.

You'll get to vote on important issues and be a shareholder in the club.

I'm sure that any board member would be happy to give you an idea of our aims

They can be easily recignised they are usualy on car park duty, serving behind the bar or videoing the game.

Its common knowledge that of course the club want to move back to the Rushden area at some point in the future

Not common knowledge to me, as I would have not asked, remember alot of people, are seeing the results and the attendances and are thinking it would be nice to start watch Diamonds again etc, so will have hardly any knowledge of what's gone/going, on., remember not everyone lives in the local area as well.

fair point Ron,

Have you looked at the official website? It should give you a better idea of what has happened and what is going to happen.
I don't think I'm speaking out of term here to say, that our main aim is to move into Rushden in the future. We are building a long term strategy to achieve this goal, part of that means that we want as many people as possible to become members, as that gives the club strength and credibility within the community, so if you, like a few others are Ummming and Aaaarhing about joining as members, do it now and help the club's future 8-)

Part two:-

Just remembered, if you want to see the best fans owned club in the world, then have a look at The Green Bay Packers web site, the club was going out of business and the town rallied and evryone in the town bought shares, even today it is owned by the fans, and is now one of the richest American Football clubs in the world (OK the USA), but it does go to show what can be achieved with Fan Power 8-)
