Northampton had shape and desire and the skilled players able to back up their Manager's game-plan.
One final thought I had as I left the ground was ' they can't possibly train all week to produce the non-soccer (if that's an acceptable term ?) which I had just witnessed !....and I was saddened by the thought !.
QUO VADIS STANLEY ?.

They were a good team,and their playing budgets probably double ours so we have to keep things real.
You can go thro their team and they have invested heavy in getting away from the relegation zone,we simply cant do that.
They have Richards and otoole up top,we have Carver and McGuire,love to put their career stats side by side !!
We have lost probably three of our star performers (keeper,Jonno and Tom)
what are people expecting.
We have introduced "rookies"to plug gaps (not their fault),Carver,Coneelly,keeper,Bucko,how many games have they played??,that's nearly half your team and more importantly part of the spine,which is key to success.
Saying that,we should still of got something out of the game,but our inexperience cost us dearly,hopefully Coley addresses this and we start picking up points.
