It's like when people "claim" to support two teams, the Cobblers and one in the Premiershite.
You can only support two teams until the day they play each other. When the ball goes in the net, then you'll know which team you support.
A football allegiance version of the 'Tebbit Test'?

I remember at the first game sitting in front of a couple of Cov fans who were asking what colour Cobblers were playing in, they were only there because it was a new stadium opening preventing others from obtaining the much sought after tickets and attending... I wonder how many times they returned to support the 'home side' 19 years later?

Referee will be Keith Hill for this. His previous Cobblers games include our 1-1 draw at Hereford in Feb 2011 and more recently our away day "end of season nothing to play for" 2-2 game in Apr 2013 at Port Vale.

Goes to show how we all see things different Archer would struggle to get in my top 10 even with 1 good save.
My MOTM was Cresswell
I know, that is the reason the game is what it is. Archers' save just prior to that "1 good save" was technically better but people forget that one because it wasn't a 'camera' save. Aside from the worldy free kick (I was sat in the West) that he may or may not have had a better wall, which may or may not have prevented it, I couldn't see anything from a keepers perspective that he did wrong... I honestly thought that Collins was the best outfield player overall, but I suppose that Cresswell scoring influences decisions and nominations... Not arguing, just stating my view....

Also I wish they turn down the speaker in the west stand bogs, going for a pee whilst being deafened by someone shouting 'ooh that was close , or ohh good effort' on something you can't see is not the best.
Probably commentating on your performance at the urinal?
