Hey, Rob, nothing to do with Tyreece (great news about his loan, and apologies for going off-thread Mods) but I am sitting in lounge at Frankfurt Airport talking to the Valmiera FC squad who are on their way home from beating Tre Penne (I had to Google them) 3-0 in the Europa Conference League 2nd qualifying round .. have you seen them play in Latvia?
Put the word out but no chance of any loans.

When did we last challenge for a place in the championship with a 10,000 plus capacity?
Since thomas/cardoza/cdnl times we've been a 4th division club playing in a non league ground..
I noticed you didn't ask how many times have the club been forced to announce all ticket games at the tiny non league Sixfields? 100s is the answer, technically due to capacity issues these must be classed as sell outs as folk are unable to buy tickets on the day. Knowing you struggle with things outside the totals column, remember Brighton who average near 30,000 these days never got near that at the delapitdated withdean stadium... Do you need me to explain to you why?
To be fair, whilst most of us would admit that Sixfields needs an expansion/upgrade, it is certainly not non-league. You do those that serve the club a disservice with sweeping statements like that.

Absolutely perfect couple of outcomes.
Add to all of this:
Cobblers being promoted. Posh choking after the largest ever play off lead. MK being relegated. Scunny being relegated to the regional league.
And this is the footballing gods well and truly making it up to Northampton Town Football Club after last seasons debacle 😂🥹😂👊🏾
I guess adding a Joey Barton sacking to the above would just be plain greedy 😕

I have still got the t-shirt and wear it occasionally to matches, not tomorrow though, it's probably going to be my lucky Lotto shirt.
I have also got the towel and in a few minutes time, I am going to use it to dry my freshly washed bőllőcks. The fact that I am revealing that to the whole world (wide web) probably makes me one of those weird but perhaps not wonderful posters.
I still love our little community even with it's occasional faults. I love Marvo in particular, even if I don't agree with all his opinions, he has every right to express them and to defend his (sometimes indefensible) position.
Go up tomorrow and I'll be commissioning some "Never Mind the B@ll@cks, Here's League One" t-shirts.
