Sorry it's early I wanted to start a discussion about the game itself rather than tickets or parking, plus i've never done one before!!
One to watch for Northampton would be Alex Revell. I've always liked him and he always seemed to play well against us, notably for Orient in one of Trollopes final games.
Oh I guess 'John-Joe the Toole' will be up for it as well, maybe lure him into getting sent off?  He has now played twice as many games for Northampton as he did for the gas but only scored 3 more goals in a deeper role. Regarded as Cult (hero) by Northampton fans, but just a Special lady garden by many gasheads.
Northampton have started well and in top form, which is surprising seeing as they lost their manager and best player in the summer. They are yet to play the current top sides but appear to be sound defensively and score goals so will be more than happy of late.
Its never easy away to Northampton so ill go with a 1-1 draw (Ellis). - Predicting the score seems to come easier than predicting the starting line-up but feel free to have a go! |

Interesting that Northampton haven't played anyone in the current top 10. The highest placed team they've faced is Chesterfield (currently 11th) and that was the game they lost.

Also going for 1 -1. If Taylor plays, possibly a win.

You can only beat what is put in front of you and Northampton have done pretty well, and I guess if they have beaten teams those teams will likely be below them. After all last season most of the teams they faced were below them! Will be a hard match and we will do well to get a draw. Hope our Matty Taylor is fit, could make a difference!
UTG!

Never been so pessimistic travelling for a game, not because of the result but because I'm convinced it's gonna get postponed. Really hope I'm wrong!

Can't see us losing this (famous last words), think it'll be a draw.
I'd stick with same team as Tuesday night, but with Taylor/Gaffney/Bodin/James replacing Easter up top (in that order of preference!).

The weather screwed the m4 earlier.
I came into London around 11 and the conditions were bad.

Where is Connor Roberts? ...... Right Back! Good to see Colkz getting a start.  UTG |
