That wouldn't have been us, I'm afraid. We were still a junior club until 1908. There are several Suttons in the midlands and it was probably a club from one of those towns.
We are looking forward to our first visit to your club on Saturday.
Ah I got the information from Frank Grande's Official Centenary History of Northampton Town and it is listed as Sutton United however just done a quick search online and we are listed elsewhere as playing Sutton Town in that cup game! First game against you this Saturday it is then

In 1974 I was catching the London train from Crewe station. It was very crowded; I found myself in a last-minute rush for the one remaining seat beside a tall, good-looking man with collar-length hair, it was the seventies; buckaroo! I looked up and saw it was none other than Peter Purves, it was the height of his Blue Peter career. He said, "You jammy bastard" and quick as a flash, I replied, "Don't be blue,............Peter!"
Get your own material!

Well this from their forum is just plain rude.
Two other things of note. Firstly, and this seems a little unfair on them I must admit, they have a trip to Leyton Orient on Tuesday so we should be fresher come Friday night. Secondly, after a quick perusal of their squad pics, I think the kindest thing to say is you'd struggle to form a boy band from among them that would woo hearts. Damn, they're an ugly bunch.
What would you call a Cobblers boy band anyway?
Have they seen Wayne Rooney?

We have a decent record against these. Played 15 Won 7 Draw 6 Lose 2
Therefore I have a very good feeling...
3-1 Cobbs Willo, Olly and The Hoskmeister
Yes they won tonight and they have awful away record..
It's actually better than that, Played 17 Won 9 Drawn 6 Lost 2 For 31 Against 19 And broken down home and away, Home P 8 W 4 D 3 L 1 F 14 A 8 Away P 9 W 5 D 3 L 1 F 17 A 11 Not sure how that makes them a bogey side away!

The music appeared to be slightly slower yesterday than it should have been. At one point it sounded as if it was going to give up the ghost altogether.
I noticed that as well. Don't you want me baby sounded terrible.

The one I remember was against Leyton Orient; not sure if this is the one you meant. On his day a fine player, he also had a very pleasant Portugese Girl Friend who I sat next to at Wimbledon.
York at home and Notts County away. Never scored against Orient!
