The unofficial AFC Rushden & Diamonds messageboard

See you Tuesday night. Match details below.

Really looking forward to this, especially as it’s such a quick turnaround. Hopefully we can get a fantastic crowd at Hayden Road! One plea I would make to Rushden fans, please stand in the terrace if you can. I know people like to stand from the sides, and I understand why, but last time around against Corby at HR they swarmed the Peter de Banke, and whilst it was nice and lively, they created a lot of noise to spur their team on! We need to fill out the terrace and spur the lads to victory.

Swarmed. There were about 50 if you were lucky.

They took up half of the Peter de banke pal, that’s a fact. Not sure how many were there in total, but you can’t deny they made a lot of noise. The point stands regardless, let’s create a bunch of noise for the lads.

This could well go to penalties on Tuesday. We will need Hillier Cup hero Isaac Redding on the bench.

I agree with this, the Corby fans made a right racket in the De Banke, we can't allow home advantage to slip. This is a massive game for the club, the first FA Cup one at home for quite a while and an opportunity to bury the cup hoodoo, we need as many people as possible getting behind the lads on Tuesday

Wonder who’s this Npton loanee is ? A striker?

Don't know how we got away with being so deep the 2nd half, but we won! What a great night!

Probably the worst penalty shoot out I have ever seen but who cares. Thought we were the better team first half, Corby the better second half and then we shaded extra time. Fully deserved. What a goal too!!!!
