BRIEF HISTORY of the RUSHDEN & DIAMONDS FOOTBALL CLUB
(reproduced from 'Wikipedia' pages)
Rushden & Diamonds Football Club was an association football club based in Irthlingborough,
Northamptonshire, England. Formed by a merger of Rushden Town and Irthlingborough Diamonds in 1992,
the club played in the Conference National following a short spell in the Football League at the
start of the 2000s. Nicknamed "The Diamonds", the club played at Nene Park. The club's main rivals
were county neighbours Kettering Town. The club were expelled from the Conference National on 11
June 2011; their unstable financial position meant they could not guarantee to complete all their
fixtures in the 2011–12 season, and resulted in their dissolution.
