If you mean Colin Bell and Francis Lee we did not play against either of them when we had our 1 year in Division 1 as Man City were in Division 2 at the time. We did play against the likes of Law, Best, Greaves and Peters though just to name a few. Another good player in those days was Phil Woosnam who played for Aston Villa, the only team we did the double over.
No idea who Vernon is.
Roy Vernon Gifted inside forward with Stoke City - saw him play at Stoke City when we were beaten 5-1. He stood out that day sheer class. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roy_Vernon

1 defeat in 5 league games yielding 8 points is the sort of consistency we need. Would have liked it to be 10 but after the poor run prior, albeit against the better sides that return is acceptable. A weekend off will do them good before back to back home games with the possibility of some fans in the ground. It's good to be patient sometimes.

We're not currently in the relegation zone.
Staying up this season is success. What do people expect?
A change of manager could easily backfire in our current position.
That kind of thinking is beyond quite a few on here? After today's result, some could not restrain themselves. Rochdale looked and played like a team which was far better than poor old Burton! My prediction was a draw and it was certainly a hard-earned point to gain. For me hats off to the defence for Mitchell had,as far as I can remember only had to make one decent save other than the goal.

Yes remember him now. Brian Douglas of Blackburn was another good player in those days.

Roy Vernon and Alex Young played for Everton when they won the title.

Perhaps Mysterious if you think the manager is a clown you should change your name to Mysterious Clown. This is the clown that turned the ship around 2 seasons ago after we had taken 7 points from the first 10 games. This is the clown that got us promoted last season. This is the clown that took us on a FA Cup run that brought in £750,000. This is the clown that spotted Charlie Goode, who could not hold down a place at Sc***horpe, and developed him into a player that we sold for £1 to £1.5 million. Don't you just love clowns?.
I would love to but unfortunately the mods have put a block on changing names! Fingers crossed the username will be irrelevant in the next couple of weeks when he finally gets the boot. I'm still trying to work out what it was I watched last night. It certainly wasn't football, and largely mirrored the FA cup tie and Oxford City. One side looked to use the ball and play, the other, totally inept camped out on the edge of their own box, getting deeper and deeper whilst praying for the final whistle. That was the case for about 60 minutes last night and about 70 minutes at Oxford City. It isn't football and whatever it is it's not enjoyable. Every game we seem to impose ourselves for a 10 minute period then sit back like its an FA Cup game v top flight opposition. It may have something to do with the fact our three main outlets (Adams, Marshall and Holmes) have a combined age of 100, who knows!? Luckily I don't pay to watch Ifollow, but if I did I would have given up a long time ago.

Be interesting to learn of your former ID’s as you are so full of jaundiced views on KC and players. If you feel so wronged by KC and his methods why come on here with the same repetitive mantra? You have made your point so many times. The point earned last night was welcomed by most on here. Rochdale were far better than Burton and when Holmes and McW went off, most offensive ability went with them. It is understandable to criticize some of KC tactics even welcome. However whatever tactic is used you issue your disapproval sometimes with personal almost shameful opinions of KC. Can you inform us of your true allegiance to NTFC and the reasons behind your baleful views. For instance is it a view endorsed and supported by others or a personal view only?

It was a good point last night, but lets face if we'd have seen the game out and won 0-1 there still would have moaning on here.

But it's his view of things, he IS allowed to have a point of view. Everyone who posts anything you don't agree with gets a lecture, questioning if they are Cobblers fans and accusations of having agenda's. I doubt if there are any on here who are not Cobblers fans and as Cobblers fans , we all want the best for NTFC, but not everyone has the same views and, really, that's what makes a message board worth reading.

Ok Mr Mod I too am allowed an opinion and provided it generally conforms to Forum Rules; is ‘all fair in etc ‘ ....I apologise that my view does not fully conform to yours ref said poster . The difference between our views is that I fully take note and applaud yours. The point of the Forum is to sustain debate; comment and challenge. I take most views with a pinch of salt and hope you do so.

Question for you. Why did you choose this username in the first place if you don't like the guy? After all you only registered this username on 12th September 2020. Maybe, the fantastic performances in the play-offs persuaded you? Also, you say "you're still trying to work out what you watched last night" then say you don't pay for I Follow So, as this game wasn't free for season ticket holders because it was an away game; did you watch it or not?

Yes, not many options. Just name yourself after someone you constantly moan about, win, lose or draw. Very clever
