Pre-Match Thread Northampton Town Away

[Kris]

Last time I went to Northampton (Freddy Eastwood was playing and Adam Barrett scored a winner in the dying minutes) it was sit where you like (within the stand), is it still the same now?

It is, yeah. Even though we usually have a strong following at Sixfields the stewards always allow us to sit where we like, regardless of assigned seats on the ticket.

Me & my little shrimperette (11 y/o daughter) will be there this weekend..:smile:

Where's everyone drinking in Northampton?

Did'nt know that everyone in Northampton drank, thought it was only Glasgow..........Checking out a relocation as I type.

Looking forward to this v. much, is one of my favourite away days.
(Nothing to do with the fact that TGIs is opposite with great pre-match cocktails :dizzy: )

Travelling with the Beardo crew, and it is also a Birthday for Mr BeardoBlue - who is very kindly driving all us girls.
Going for 3-0 Blues with Dickinson, Benyon & Phillips the scorers.

We won't know until we stop buying/loaning players!

Not sure yet but it will be a new look side. We don't want to change things to much but I knew we would do a lot of business in January because we have dropped of the pace recently and it was obvious we needed a new fresh legs especially up front. The pleasing thing is Sturrock has done this early in January which we are not really used to.

I am very excited for this game though. been to northampton more times than any other away ground and hoping for a win after a draw (I think) last season with Grant scoring I believe.

Subs: Asante-Crawford-Paterson

Going Saturday for my first away game for more years than I care to remember, anyone else picking up the coach from The Watermill?

I would play Grant in front of Kalala every time.

 

[Sandbach Shrimper]

I'd play the same team as Port Vale (don't change a winning side) but with Sampson on the bench instead of Sturrock and Bentley instead of Ferdinand, presuming we don't sign anymore players before Saturday!

 

[blue79]

Just hope this new look team doesn't require much time to gel:winking:

Just seen that our advance allocation of 500 has sold out. 700 available on the day, so make sure you allow plenty of time if you've not got a ticket.

We lost 2-1 after going 1 up as you say through Grant.

 

[leeblue]

I would play Grant in front of Kalala every time.

I would pick kalala over grant every time, twice the holding player grant is and for whatever reasons grant has been pretty gash this season

 

[shrimperjon]

Flood wont be available as we require international clearance and we probably wont get it in time.
