Re: Northampton Town Match Thread............
Agree with Shaker's comments, especially about the midfield and "tracking back". This is the main area where we still seem to be missing Procky's battling midfield play. Luke and Charlie are playing "just ok" at the moment but even at their best, neither of them have the aggresive style of chasing back and tackling and harrassing like Procky used to.
Don't forget that Northampton have been one of the divisions form teams recently having won a few matches to take them away from the bottom. They did come prepared to play an attacking game and were definitely looking for three points. So I think for us to win and get the three points was highly creditable even though, as others have commented, we are still not clicking fully yet. Keep the faith, the team is getting stronger and more cohesive. Good to see Toto getting more consistency into his game and I was really chuffed for Linfield to score that cracking header, especially right in front of us in the Clayton End. Murphy had a dodgy game but his cross for Linfields goal was just puurrrrfect!
On Stanley On.
