Albion v. Rushden and Diamonds

keep us diamonds fans up to date by putting regular weather reports on here please

Still windy…

Are we still taling about the weather?? ;D

I’ll be up at 8 to go down the ground so will post before i leave the house.

Just up to go down the ground - don’t think its rained so should be pretty certain.
Sure someone will update shortly -Pick - will update you.

It has been a clear night according to the night shift and the wind has dropped too so all depends on if there is any surface water on the pitch from the rain we’ve had over the last couple of days

Apparently pitch is FINE. No rain, so no surface water. Game on!

Rushden fans - enjoy the Salt Barge.

Official pitch inspection confirms the games as…ON!

Good stuff.

Latest from Neil is that the game is pretty even up to now, Miller has had the best chance so far. 25 mins gone still 0-0

Kennedy just pulled off a great one on one save still 0-0

witton just had a strong penalty appeal turned down. I’m having bloody kittens here every time my phone beeps!!!

Cheers for the updates Picko, much appreciated by those of us on the other side of the country. Sounds like we’re doing pretty well - just need a goal before half-time.

Half time 0-0

Just spoke to Mike at the game he says that the first 20 mins was pretty even then Rushden have slowly started getting on top and could have had a couple of goals but Kennedy has made a couple of excellent saves and kept us in the game. Gaghan is having a good game. They are attacking in numbers so hopefully we can hold out and maybe catch them on the counter.

Interesting to see Telford and Hednesford both losing at half-time in the league.

0-1 to Rushden another great save by Kennedy but the rebound put in suspicion of handball according to Neil
