The unofficial AFC Rushden & Diamonds messageboard

Distinct lack of centrebacks at the moment.

Deakin, Parkinson, Hope, Lance, McBride & Aaron King are the obvious omissions.

Hopefully we can get those 6 tied up

Looking good for UCL Prem, just the back line to sort out & maybe a couple of additions & will be in a position to possibly surprise a few people.

I would be a bit miffed, if those 6 didn't sign, that said I would understand lance, as his starts maybe limited, but the rest are not going to get a better club at this level or even quite a few divisions higher.

No, no, no you're all wrong! Starms is taking a radical approach this season and is reverting to the old fashioned "inverted Christmas tree" formation - 2-3-5, full-backs, half-backs, inside forwards and the like ;) ;)

0-0-10 formation is much better.

Lance Allen is listed as signing.

I don't know, but I would assume (or possibly hope) that those players have just gone on a well deserved holiday!! Either that or they're hoping to get away with a week or two of Starms' pre season training :lol:

There's a comment appertaining to this from Dave Albon on the Members Forum.
