I know we are a bit behind the news in London (my newsagent refuses to stock the Chronicle & Echo !) but is this true;
"
Shock in Northampton... Northamptonshire Police are today searching for perpetrator of a series of acts of vandalism in the local community. Townsfolk awoke this morning to find that the centre piece in their festive celebrations, the towns Christmas Tree, had been set alight and the Christmas lights ripped from their fittings.
The carnage comes just hours after the appointment of coach Senior who answered the Cobblers' call following the
dismissal of former incumbent Ian Sampson. Police are not ruling out that the two events could be linked
In a separate incident Northampton Town chairman David Cardoza's Bentley Continental car was damaged. Windows smashed, tyres slashed and the words "...liar..." and "...in-job..." scratched into the bonnet... The car had been parked at the Sixfields training facility, just a short distance from the town centre."
