martyn8484 Posted June 14, 2019 Author Share Posted June 14, 2019 I'm from Higham Ferrers, about 5 minutes drive from where R&D played. It's such a shame to see what happened to them, and to see that empty space where a lovely little stadium once stood. A team still operates in the lower leagues now as AFC Rushden and Diamonds and I believe they still have a cult following from the original die-hard fans.

Lovely little set up at Rushden and Diamonds Forgot about R&D being in t’league....always made me chuckle when a fan of a rival club called up a radio station & referred t’them as Rubbish & Dustbins...!
