Afternoon Cobblers,

Here’s my review of yesterday’s game for Prost International.

It was my first time in a press box and there were a few interesting observations of your side.
Particularly in terms of your team cohesion with it being quiet you could hear everything going on.

I will be at Accrington on Saturday reporting so feel free to follow my updates from the action on my Twitter https://twitter.com/seanmcsport

Sadly that sums us up at the moment.

Found your assumptions on Jones and fellow defenders a bit fanciful. Your summary on Cobblers overall ineffectiveness is of course correct.  However to me the real difference was Yates!

I can honestly say I’ve never seen as much broken glass on a pub floor as in Yates in Blackpool.

Pub in London Bridge (name escapes me now) after we'd played Dagenham away, around 2010 time...Millwall doing a hit on Norwich. All the windows put through...barman laid on Sambucas for the few left, whilst quipping that we could smoke inside if we wished!
To end it all, minutes later a French girl walked in to meet her friends; "We did it as a surprise for you" one of the girls said!  Grin

I ordered a spaghetti carbonara in there once. Not one of my usual choices in a pub but I just fancied it. The barman looked at me like I'd ordered a dolphin burger. I had to get the menu to show him the item in question as he seemed never to have heard of the dish before.

That was the same trip where me and my dad had a sweepstake on the way up on how long after arrival it would be before we spotted the first drunken Scotsman. We parked up at that big car park near the ground and without a word of a lie, just as we were walking out of the car park gate some Glaswegian p1sshead came lurching over to us and asked us something. I say "something" because it's hard enough to understand a Weegie at the best of times, but that's doubly true when they are slurring all over the place. We both smiled politely and said "sorry mate, no idea" or words to that effect.

He muttered something and wandered off and my dad said "Did you understand a word of that?"

"Not a single one" I replied and we both p1ssed ourselves laughing. It was barely mid morning as well! Grin

That article was actually a real interesting read, a lot better than a bog standard match report that just goes through the goal scorres.

A few years back , working in that there London. I had an early job at Covent Garden, replace some glazing, done by 9am. Its a bit early to think about hitting the tube. It will be packed. So As a tourist, I took a walk. That took me towards Trafalgar square. The stench of whiskey was amazing.

It’s affluent in that London. I once took an early morning walk towards Regent Square and the stench of Special Brew was amazing?
