My mate drove up for the game Sunday a couple weeks ago, we parked at a pub called the Charles Darwin. Left the car at the pub and it’s a proper estate pub, flat roof, cheap pints, darts, pool etc. Was perfect.

Great post. Northamptonshire has a catchment of 750,000 so could conceivably support a premier league side, like you say any improvements to the ground haven’t materialised to even thinking about getting above our usual 5-7,000. 15 years ago we were promised a 15,000 seater stadium at...

A blessed relief

800 Cobblers at Burton for the early kick off

Hopefully the teams below lose and us and Gas can start to cut them adrift a bit

Huge win for us. Club stalwart Sammy Hoskins with the late winner on his 400th appearance, a crazy record in this day and age. The players looked dead on their feet after 50 minutes so to get 3 points is huge. Put your feet up lads you’ve earned it.

I’ll put you down as a maybe, Barry

We’ve signed Liam Shaw from Fleetwood after triggering his release clause. Never heard of him but he’s billed as an energetic box to box midfielder so a boost for tomorrow if he’s available. Think we’re trying to be active early which is a nice change.

Pre sold 750 for the early kick off at Burton

We had Darren Drysdale yesterday and he was utterly utterly pathetic. I wasn’t feeling too fresh or energetic but 15 minutes of him ‘making decisions’ gave me a new lease of life. Him and his assistant on the near side guessed most decisions, something would happen, they’d look at each other for...

Burton away. Huge game for us, an opportunity to win despite our issues with availability. If we could get the three points it’d give everyone a massive lift, but we’ll see at 2pm Saturday how the land lies.

Really really gutsy performance from our mob today up at Sixfields. Much better than Stevenage and they only got any real sustained pressure at our end after 70 minutes when everyone looked out on their feet. Due to having to juggle the side around we ended with a back 5 of Right winger -...

Captain stretchered off. My god. Really good half otherwise much better than Stevenage, but have had to rejig as it had to be Hoskins coming on for Guthrie.

Currently lying on the sofa with the dog and that’s as close as I’ll get to that

I’ll be up Sixfields trying not to shit myself today. Hanging out my arse. Happy new year all.

It’s just utterly baffling half the time with him EDIT - not half the time, all the time

Aaron Pierre was excellent today I thought, really drove you on, must make a huge difference as well

Yep we’ve got our list of baffling decisions from Stockbridge today too - the free kick that he gave that led to your goal is just never a free kick, the free kick that led to our goal wasn’t a free kick but Eaves could have had 4 in the 30 seconds before it etc etc. Just generally incompetent...

Poor game at Shrewsbury but we battled to a point. Both teams had chances but was relatively low on quality throughout unsurprisingly. Our injury situation also shows no sign of abating Odimayo subbed off for Mccarron, who then got injured and was replaced by Baldwin, who was then subbed off...

688 Cobblers at Shrewsbury
