Northampton V Swindon Matchday thread

[Chubbs]

Not a bad game, had chances to win it, also had chances to loose it, but thanks to the woodwork and phil smith got a point.


P.Smith- Top performance, not much could have been done about the goal, but made some great saves to give us the point.
Vincent- Not impressed today, was a bit all over the place at times.
Aljofree/Ifil- Both very solid and some very nice footwork from the beast.
Smith- Same old, no troubles with him really.
Boob- Had a good game i thought, some good runs, tracked back got stuck in.
Pook- Didint notice him playing for the firat part, but he got stuck in, and played well, no complaints about him really.
Adams- Didint know he was playing full stop, so dont know if he was good or not.
Roberts- Worked hard, good runs, unlucky with his shot that hit the bar, well taken penalty.
Peacock- His usual self, hard working, running his bollocks off.
Blair- Well, i think its all been said before, he tries, but when it comes to shooting he hasnt got a clue.

Arrietta- Looked promising today, should be a good signing
Comminges- Fantastic, doesnt take any shit, good foot work
Mo- Again, looked livley for the 5 min he was on, got some pace and skill will have to see what he's made off.

[lebowski]

i think northampton have got a long hard season ahead.

[DiV]

I think we need a striker  :?

[lebowski]

without one, we'll have a long season too.

i didnt fancy roberts over that spot kick one little bit.

[DiV]

it was ghey, it got awarded and everyone went mental and ran to the front....I stood there thinking.....well we've got to score it first.

[lebowski]

i lost my place in the burger queue  

[Scot Munroe]

£1.70 for a bottle of fanta a joke. i thought we played well, shud of won, both centre backs played well and bennett language was ace calling the northampton keeper a blue cunt.

Could be that maybe the new investors dont want to move to Chippenham.

Or they asked to see some plans...and Bowden said that they were in an advanced stage, but are still in his head

[OOH! SHAUN TAYLOR]

I think that's a pretty fair summing up. I think Adams and Pook are the kind of players who the fans will come to appreciate over time by performing consistantly without ever being spectacular.

And yes I DID say Pook. He did nothing wrong today and worked his socks off. If he carries on working that hard week in, week out, he will win over the Pook haters.*

*Then again, maybe he won't, seeing as once some people make their minds up about a player they will never EVER change their mind :?

[fatbury]

just got back .. point gained I think .. we still need someone else up front with a bit of pace but I enjoyed the day out and we could easily have won

Phil Smith, Jerel and Hasney were superb ... Pook and Adams were solid .. Roberts looked threatening

Bring on Charlton!

[Samdy Gray]

An a completely unrelated note, how short was the Northampton left-back?  

He was shorter than the corner flag

:shock:

Almost everyone is there!

[Luci]

Oh and I have to say that Pook did well today and put in some good touches and some very nice play.

Fair play to him.  Was impressed by the link he made in getting the ball wide quickly without fucking around with it.

[Bennett]

£1.70 for a bottle of fanta a joke. i thought we played well, shud of won, both centre backs played well and bennett language was ace calling the northampton keeper a blue cunt.

i was telling him to get back into his corner-the blue cunt.

"free kick....oh i'll add twenty yards. cheers ref!"

just a pet peeve
