Actually, I'm quite interested in this. A Youth Team who have been together for a while, coached by a professional football club, vs a club that had to hold trials at Raunds just to get enough players to get 1 team together. Will be interesting to see where we both stand.

Losing to Camb U is poor, to R&D would be worse.

My under 17s team entered this competition and only managed to field 10 men in round 1, we lost 6-2, still i wonder what a team like Northampton would have done to us!

If he was born in 1899, I reckon its quite an old TED.  So yes, the old TED. ;)

OK, fair enough, clearly I'm on my own in finding it funny that Rushden's upcoming 'big game' is against our Under 18's in a County Youth Cup. ;D Rushden are gone now, they will never be a threat to us again and I'm past caring about them. They're an insignificant local-ish non-league side, like Brackley Town or Banbury United.

If it isn't actually our U18 side then I couldn't give a bollocks, if it is out U18 side then I'd take a passing interest as I do in any of our teams be it juniors, reserves, ladies etc.

Cheers for clearing that up mate, on that basis I don't give a bollocks. It has no relevance to us.

As i said mate, it is not the cobblers. It is the county side, hence the NFA bit.

Seems to be the proper NTFC youth team to me.

http://www.ntfc.co.uk/page/Youth/0,,10425~2513520,00.html

Kick-off is 7:45pm. See you all there?

Rushden and Diamonds AFC has nothing to do with Rushden or Irthlingborough or Rushden and Diamonds apart from the name. Oh! they may have received a donation from the old Rushden and Diamonds supporters trust to help them set the club up though. So they have little to do with the old dimlows.

*sigh* how about welcome to the forum?

Anyway I'm not biting - I don't see what that has to do with anything anyway. NTFC youth team are playing, that is the point.

Welcome, ;D I was pointing out to those who may have mistakenly thought that this was about Northampton Town Youth playing Rushden and Diamonds youth that this couldn't be further from the truth as AFC RD has bog all to do with the deceased club dimlows fc. ;)

Well 'bog all' is wrong, but you are right in saying that it's not the same club.

It is is different entity and plays at a different place, but represents the same area and has some of the same supporters. Do with that information what you will - I've not registered on here to argue about what AFC is and isn't, I just wanted to let you know about the game is all.

so basically its about as close to the old crap as northampton spencer is to us. same area, we like to see them do better than lose every week

The OP wrote the title of the thread incorrectly as Northampton Town NFA side are the county side not NTFC.

Where are you getting that from?

1/ Why would the NFA let the county representative team enter the county cup and what would be the point?

2/ 3 players from AFC R&D are in the county side and none of them are anything to do with NTFC.

3/ I have heard a direct quote from someone within the NTFC youth set up saying that it is the official youth team as 'there is no-one else'.

4/ It is on the official NTFC website that the youth team are playing AFC R&D.

So I don't know where you are getting your information from but to my knowledge you are incorrect. If I am wrong, then I apologise... but I'm pretty sure that I'm not.

Who are AFC Rushden? Are they the main team in Rushden? Where do they play in Rushden?
Oh they play in Raunds not at Hayden Road, Rushden under the umbrella of Rushden and Higham FC!!!

Just read that Rushden and Higham are riding high in the UCL with Aidy Mann at the helm, Someone must surly put his name into the hat as possible new manager!

AFC Rushden are an under 18 Team who play in Raunds.
They are NOT the main team in Rushden, or Raunds, even at Under 18 Level.
Yes, they play in Raunds. Hayden Road may offer them too much history, and we all know they don't like that. - They like to get to about 10 years worth of history, and then start again. They'll be playing at Stanwick Rec as of 2021  ;D

I must say, being from that area myself, the old R&DFC were never thought of as "representing the area". I can't remember them ever doing too much in the community outside of Rushden and Irthlingborough.

Whatever, I don't particularly wish them well.
