Anyone else notice the post on the match thread on the Northampton forum claiming they took 41,000 to the 97/98 playoff final?


I think it was 40k from memory.

Quoted from Les Brechin
Another thing, not sure if this has been mentioned earlier, but there should have been about a dozen handball offences against their keeper as he wasn't releasing the ball from his hands until he was outside his area from the kicks he was taking. That was the fault of the lino though rather than the referee.


He appeared to do that a few times. Crocombe did at least once too.

Wasn't impressed with Crocombe's distribution the last 2 games. It looked really good last season, but so many balls were pumped long and nowhere near our players.

In fairness, Crocombe does this a lot too, another thing that is regularly let go by officials

Aidan Davison at Port Vale is the only keeper to have ever been punished for this in Football League history.

Happy with the performance overall.
Defence looked solid, Hylton didn't have a sniff.

Efetee was a bit disappointing, but i think he will grow into the league and do just fine.

Kiernan was good, with Hoolahan my MOTM by a mile

I don't know if their defence has changed much, but they conceeded the least amount of goals last season.
We made them look all over the place at times, and without repeating everything,everyone says. We are 1 striker away from being a very good team.

Hopefully Wearne starts tomorrow

At least his kicks managed to stay in BP on Saturday

Oh wow, just looked it up. Didn't realise they had that many there that's insanely good support. I thought the total was about 52,000 or something for some reason hence me thinking that was nonsense as it would have meant we only took about 11,000.

We took 20,000,  and Northampton definitely did take just over 40,000, it’s true.

I seem to think we took quite a few more to Wembley for the earlier Trophy game against Bournemouth than to the play-off final itself? No surprise we didn't take as many down again just weeks later, but it was a very good turnout from Northampton, although it is was less than 90 minutes down the road for them to travel.
