True....but they've tidy facilities there, shame we couldn't have had someone like Griggs to invest in our club.
R and D away Boxing Day 03, was without doubt the worst experience I've ever had in nearly 50 years of support.Toxic combination of personal stuff and dire football...
I was there that day as well...and remember having to listen to one of our fans in the row in front repeating the line that R&D were now a bigger, better run club than ourselves. Now I won't deny that we were being run by a shower of shite in those days, but the statement still seemed
so wide of the mark that it really upset me.
Rushden should simply never have been there. Bought their place in the League just as Crawley have bought theirs. It's the lower league equivalent of Wigan's purchased place in the Prem. Don't see the point, myself. When the artificial support is withdrawn, the club will inevitablt return to its natural level. I never like to see a club disappear, but I'll not regret Rushden's demise for long.
