Personally I couldn't give 2 shytes who we play in pre season, I won't be going, may of gone for a few beers in the sun at Sileby but not a Tuesday.
Yeah, agree with that. It's nice to have a bit of a break from football over the summer. The last few years the Sileby game has become a bit of a tradition for us as it's literally just around the corner from our house. Even my wife (who hates football) comes along and enjoys a few drinks in the sunshine while watching the game and the kids can all come along too, including the little one who also doesn't like football but is happy enough playing on the grassy areas at the side of the pitch. In the last 2 years one of my non-Cobblers supporting mates and his wife and kids have joined us too, then we've headed back to ours for more drinks and a barbecue.
It's a lovely way to spend a summer afternoon so, personally, I'm disappointed we won't get to do it in the same way this year. I might still go along as it's right on my doorstep but we won't be able to go as a family as it will finish later than the 2 youngest's bed times, so I've no real enthusiasm for it.
