The unofficial AFC Rushden & Diamonds messageboard

This game has been arranged for November 17th, however should we beat Yaxley in the Vase next weekend then this game will have to be rescheduled.

Definitely a game I'm really looking forward to if it happens on that day, they clearly will be very tough and it should be a very good crowd, though it probably won't help the home attendance that Leicester are at home that day.

Don't care if the part time Leicester/Oadby fans are there, should be a huge turnout from our support. This is sure to be one of our most important games of the season, we will obviously have to finish above at least one out of Oadby or Sileby to have any chance of promotion. Not knocking R&H, Whits, Eynesbury, Bugbrooke who will all do well, perhaps one or two others as well. But Oadby and Sileby will, I would think, be there or thereabouts at the end of the season.

Now I'm confused :?
Oadby enter the FA Vase on this date, don't they?

You and me both! This fixture was announced on the weekly update from the UCL fixture compiler and put on the FA Full-time website for the UCL but it doesn't look likely to happen unless we manage to beat Yaxley and play them in the Vase.
