Disappearing Punters?

You have an old banger then?

There is the Upton housing estate with tons of parking or anywhere around the tavern, bowling, Bella Italia, KFC etc. Absolutely hundreds of free parking spots that are easier to get out of than the bottom car park. The only ones I would avoid is the cinema and outside TGI's and then you could throw any parking ticket in the bin.

Rubbish - its well known to Cobblers fans as plenty park in there. Not sure why you of all people call somebody a half wit. For the next home game I predict I will have no problem finding a parking space.

A real Cobblers fan would park in the club car parks and do so with the knowledge that some of their car parking fee was going towards the club......

You wait until you are retired and on your 3rd wife and 8 daughters. By the way if you go to away games on a Trust Coach that's supporting the club too as the Trust make the occasional donations. See you at Bury.

I go to away games on the train because it's free for me.....why would I pay for something that I can get for free? Oh...hang on a minute.......

Does everyone get that as part of their retirement package?

Seasons high then yesterday.....although there were still empty seats in the lower tier wings of the West and at the ends of the North. Somehow there were more Luton fans than they had tickets, but looking at the crowd yesterday I reckon a current capacity of around 5850-5900 is about right.

There were ridiculous numbers of luton in the west stand. When Holmes scored I reckon 20 people sitting within view of my seat stayed sitting. What happened with the ticket sales to stop them getting in?

There were originally online sales for this game but I think they pulled them later on when they noticed some Bedfordshire postcodes popping up! Then they said that they would attempt to withdraw already sold tickets if they could prove that non-hoe fans had bought them....don't know that that was successful though!

If you took the Luton off that figure it wouldn't be a mile away from our average..

That's better 😄

I can't speak for others but my sons work lot came to the game, so instead of 2 of us in the pub, there were maybe a dozen. Only 4 or 5 of those have been before this season so there was definitely an increase of Northampton support (if you can call it that), at least in our little party.

Mind you, don't let my little facts spoil anybodies attempt at pissing on the club and it's support AGAIN. It's seems to be the done thing on here now.

Apparently there just over 60 Luton supporters in the Home End. These tickets were mainly bought by Northants based Hatters supporters notably Hunsburyhatter who was in row S (seats 109'ish.

Don't be too disheartened Marvo... With a few hundred odd Luton in the home areas, we still saw an increase...

[guest48]

There seemed to be quite a few Lo'un fans on corporate tickets, seated just across the aisle from DC. So funny looking at their piss*d off faces when Gray slotted in the winner

They are corporate/guest seats

It if wasn't such a crying shame, it would almost be laughable how anybody could dismiss our highest crowd of the season by saying it was only that because of the amount of Luton fans. No shit sherlock, and I suppose our highest gate of the season last year had nothing to do with the amount of Oxford fans, or when we played Man Utd, Tottenham, West Ham etc it has nothing to do with the amount of their fans either. Unless the game had some other special significance, like play-off, promotion decider or more likely of late needing to stay in the league, our highest gate is ALWAYS to do with the amount of away fans.
