Here we go with the first match thread since March, so fill your boots.
This Thursday (18th June) we play Cheltenham in the first leg of a behind closed doors play-off game with Wembley and promotion the dream for all four teams.
So what will our team selection look like for this one - Sam Hoskins is suspended for the home leg.
Come on you Cobblers!

Difficult to pick a team with no form guide to go on. I would guess that Harriman would replace Hoskins and play RWB but who knows what the Mysterious one has seen in training!

I think that as Arnold was in possession of the shirt and he is contracted for next season he is likely to get the nod. Also think Harriman instead of Marshall at right wing back. Marshall to come on as one of our 5 subs.

I was down at the club for a bit today and chatted with James Whiting and then briefly Keith Curle. I was really impressed how relaxed and confident Keith was. Gave me a lot of hope for this tie. I was also impressed how charismatic Keith was in the flesh Fair play Curle, surprised me a lot today.

Smith for Oliver for me. If those players hit any type of form we might do well?

this - but with arnold in goal - and maybe harriman RWB, depends how brave (or bonkers) KC wants to be in the first leg.................i'd probably have the full 7 subs though too!!!! should have such a strong 18!

Really difficult to predict this one. Cheltenham were the form team before the break but this is more like the first game of a season now than the last. All going to depend on how the players have been in lockdown and how up for it they are. I would imagine that whilst our players will be happy to be in the playoffs, they might be disappointing they didn't have a crack at the top 3. I think we need to have a lead to take to Cheltenham for the second leg and think Cheltenham will be happy with a small loss. Either way just happy for football to be back and hope we can do it

We'll rip em to pieces with this line up. Do we know for certain McCormack is fit and beyond light training?

That does look a cracking side. Not convinced about Marshall's defensive credentials but if we win 5-3 who cares?

Just have to hope we don’t score a goal and sit back to hold the lead that’s where we screw our selves over

I think you now have more than 7 subs as you can now bring 5 on.

Olayinka looked so classy in his brief appearances with us already that i would be tempted to start him also, I think he was close to fitness pre lockdown.
I would probably bring Marshall off the bench also to inject a bit of pace off the bench. Cheltenham seem to switch between a 3-5-2 and a 3-4-1-2 so will be the battle of the back 3's most likely, hopefully we can keep Alfie May quiet.
Im more nervous for this game than I was last playoffs, not sure why.
I would go for this if possible. Cornell Goode Wharton Turnbull Harriman Adams Olayinka McCormack Watson Morton Oliver
Having the likes of Marshall, Anderson, Williams etc to come off the bench gives us decent options also. Thinking about it Anderson will likely start, he was looking solid for us before hand.
COME ON THE TEYN.
