NEW SIGNING โœ๏ธ | BILLY SHARP After 21 years away, AFC Rushden & Diamonds are excited to announce that @billysharp10 becomes a Diamond once again. Billy scored the first of 299 goals for Rushden & Diamonds back in 2005. The man who put the ball in the cobblers net, has 299 career goals spanning over 22 years. Featuring for RDFC, Sheffield United Doncaster Rovers, Southampton, & Scunthorpe to name a few! Billy comes in to help the Club with James Clifton being suspended and we canโ€™t wait to see him pull on the shirt one final time as we go to Burton Albion in the FA Cup 1st Round Proper for the first time ever in AFC Rushden & Diamonds history. Limited tickets for the FA Cup match at Burton are still available: ticketpass.org/event/EPCDST/โ€ฆ

MORE THAN MATCHDAYS๐Ÿ’™ AFC Rushden & Diamonds is more than just a club, and we are more than just matchdays. Our new home project will provide facilities and infrastructure for our entire community. A new home means a safe and purpose built place for our youth sides, our new womenโ€™s and girlsโ€™ pathway and our walking football sides. Picture the community coming together for a Diamonds Food Festival, or for Health and Wellbeing sessions run by local businesses out of our facilities - the possibilities are endless. We want to provide a place open throughout the week and rooted in the community it serves. Slaterโ€™s Lodge is the perfect opportunity to show just what our club can do and give back to our local area for their decades of support. We need your help.
