    What a save!
  • We look poor so far
  • Fantastic double save, we really need to wake up

    12' Racic shown a yellow card for a tough challenge on Smyth. Not much else to report in the opening exchanges here. Watch live: http://live.cafc.co.uk #ntfc 0 #cafc 0
    Quite right - Racic has no place in the game.
  • Gonna be another scrappy one if we’re going to get anything from today. Not coping too well with their agricultural tactics and clever set pieces so far. Aneke a miss as a target up front.

    I knew nothing about Northampton before today but you’d hope Bowyer has watched them. Given the way they play, I can’t understand why Pratley started the last two and wasn’t saved for today. 
  • First 15, we haven’t been able to get our foot on the ball and play our possession game. Ball’s in the air a lot. 
  • Williams only had one touch so far. Don't know why he doesn't drop deeper and pick it up

    Don't know how that stayed out. Northampton the better side in the first 15.
    Sounds familiar  :)
  • Midfield totally ineffective so far
  • Good to see we are still the only football team in the world where somehow us having a throw on is negative for us

  • Difficult as were not there but wonder if the conditions are making it a bit like that Yeovil game in the rain

  • This long ball football isn't working. Need to get the midfield trio involved more coz Northampton are dealing with everything well so far

    Because he's not Messi?

    Seriously, he's probably been instructed to play further up and make runs into the box. like he did for Wales?


  • This is looking EXACTLY like a Pratley game
  • Not a fan of this midfield at all.
  • Been some bits of nice one and two touch stuff, just missing that final quality touch or pass. 
  • Not a fan of this midfield at all.
    Agree. Not showing for the ball. Panicking when they do have it

  • First 15 .... WTF. Hope I can keep awake for the rest of the match

    Wow... AMOS
    What a double save by Amos.

    Bloody hell! What a save from Amos!
    That's six saves.  Brilliant!
    Busier of the two keepers!
  • All Northampton so far. Thank goodness for Amos!

    Is Williams playing?

    Difficult with Northampton stopping the defence from getting the ball to the midfield in the first place - they're doing well for me as Bogle is being left isolated so even when he wins the ball, the second one gets picked up by one of their player

    We do realise we are kicking with the wind behind us don't we
  • I'd take Levitt off for Pratley
  • Our corner on the right.

    Exactly so the ball is going further than we want it to

    Northampton on the other hand have it nicely hanging for them
