I was expecting Northampton to be another pleasant little market town, but the most charitable description I can muster is that it possesses former glories, but has quite simply given up. The main square was a tragedy of closures, architectural vandalism and lack of vision

It has a population of over 200,000 so little market town would be stretching it.

I have had a few great nights out when working there. A cracking Indian restaurant and some lovely real ale pubs.

I've just noticed the top 6 are all playing eachother this weekend.
Could be a good weekend to really make some ground.
Some great fixtures in L1 this weekend. Not quite the top 6 playing each other, as Doncaster are playing Crewe and Sunderland are playing Pompey (who are 8th), but that's another massive promotion clash
It was either him or Morgan being left behind and I don't see the point of having three strikers on the bench - it makes more sense having another option in midfield/defence in case of injury.
Objectively speaking, I think Bogle and Smyth will make a much bigger impact from the bench with their athleticism. He was also nonexistent against Blackpool.
Yes, he has 2 goals, not 22. He's not undroppable.
He's played 5 and a bit games.
Not undroppable but also currently has been our most dangerous player. He actually worked well alongside Bonne... If he can work well there, then surely he can work with anyone.
He was poor on Tuesday though
I imagine Bowyer will juggle his strikers anyway, as we have too many players who can't play successive 90 minutes
Juggling strikers is insanely risky. No wonder we keep having problems with injury.
Id put Bowyer up top if he can juggle Aneke and Bogle!
Like your team FA, only changes I would make is Shinnie and Doughty swap and Watson instead of Pratley, feel confident again so 0-2 win
Cheers Ross... I reckon we'll probably see both starting again, went for Pratley on his own though as he only played 45mins on Tuesday night so is slightly fresher
Couple of points, the late Chris Thompson (Dr Kish) would've enjoyed this fixture if fans had been allowed in, I'm sure he use to live near Northampton and would've been a 'home fixture' for him. Also the weather tomorrow is set to be very wet and stormy so will no doubt affect the game and every player needs to be on their game! 1-0 to the Addicks but it'll be hard fought in crappy conditions (according to this morning's weather forecast!)
It's difficult judging performances when all you've got is a live stream, but we're all in the same boat! So far this season, to me, we've always looked capable of scoring - the players look up for it and they don't seem frightened to take a chance. So, given all that, I predict a win for the Reds, but only by one goal: 1:2.
Judging by the predictions in the Prediction League, there is going to be an absolute meltdown if we don't win at Northampton. If we draw or lose, the language is likely to be stronger than Cobblers. From the predictions so far, I think it's the most confident everyone has been about a win.
This is where our squad is going to start taking shape, still a bit of match fitness for newbies needed but in the next few games we will have a better idea of who the key players are.
Northampton are a good side, they play good football (last time a checked), i went to the hasselbaink game there with the 'shes got a pie in the pocket'.
I have a good feeling we will win as struggle against harder/ dirty teams like Wigan.
Comments
I can't work out who they are closer than?!
Both Williams and JFC should get minutes in this game. We need to tap into the confidence that Jonny got from his first Welsh goal.
1-1 for me as the team is still evolving and we are some way from being a team that creates a lot of chances. Shots on target needs to improve.
Bogle still needs time to get match fit but did show promise with his pace.
We are improving which is a good sign.

Imagine Smyth just fits in his pocket!!

0-2 Charlton, Aneke + Washington.
