Following the statement released yesterday evening, all at AFC Rushden & Diamonds wish to express their sympathies with all players, officials and supporters involved with Loughborough Dynamo FC. Too often we are seeing clubs at our level unable to continue and the loss of any non-league football club is a loss to the community it serves. Loughborough Dynamo is a club of rich history and we are certain that many agonising conversations will have taken place before this ultimate decision.
Naturally, the decision taken by Loughborough Dynamo to withdraw from the league may have a direct impact upon our relegation from Step 4, as confirmed following our victory at Walsall Wood yesterday, and as a club we have contacted The Pitching In Northern Premier League to discuss the permutations.
While we believe that precedence of reprieves in situations similar to this, as well as our ranking across Step 4 in regards to points per game across the season, gives us cause to be hopeful of a reprieve, we will await official communication from The Pitching In Northern Premier League on this matter before commenting further.
