Well the non existent problems, which someone searched to find, didn't materialise and the lads seemed to have enjoyed themselves, despite the match !
Well done. 'Enjoyed themselves despite the match' could be applied to most of us following The Cobblers away over the many years...

Up until the last couple of weeks, I have been enjoying this season. We haven't been exceptional, but we are doing a lot better than I thought that we would at the start of the season. As long as we remain in this Division, the close season will be 'very interesting', probably for a long while, regarding the comings and goings in preparation for the 2024/25 season.

Not really, they pay the bills but they, then, add it to the debt
Which is probably a better situation than adding it to a Bank loan/debt with the associated interest? At least they 'own' the debt.

The mark of somebody who is conservative with the truth, is that they cannot remember the last time, that they were conservative with the truth.

I always find that when people pick up on spellings you’ve one the argument.
I wasn't in the argument, so you can scratch that from your FACTS.

I get the jitters every time the ball is played back to Moulden.
Not helped by the quality some of the passes he has been receiving... surprised that he doesn't 'Row Z' some of them instead of taking the extra touch. Excellent save, the one he tipped onto the bar though...

That's awful and didn't realise it was that bad. Shame on the council and wouldn't be at all surprised if the new area is a white elephant.
I noticed that St Neots are doing something similar with their market square, but their surrounding town areas didn't look anything like the desolation of the Northampton town centre.

These will only rise when Hinkley Point C comes on line and the French and Chinese owners will want to recoup their investment.
The service in Germany is not that great either and the reason the prices are so low is because of heavy government subsidies. There is at the moment pretty much a freeze on infrastructure development with a lot of unelectrified lines still single track and passing loops trying to service major cities.
I was going to say something similar, gone are the days when you could set your watch by the DB...
