[RedEyez]

I don’t want to get carried away here, but we’re definitely better than Bayern Munich.

Yeah, growing a tiny human which is knackering but a lovely turn of events in my life, after being told it wouldn’t be possible  

OMG- you're having a Lee Johnson. Many congratulations- well done.

Yes but the opposition are poor. 

You can only play what`s in front of you.

I know it's only Northampton but the tempo is very impressive.  Can't help but think that even if we had of won under LJ the tempo would have been much more deliberate and unnecessarily turgid.  Hard not to like.

We've played well, had 75% possession, but only mustered 8 shots, with 4 on target. Yes two have gone in and we've allowed just two shots, but should we have made a little more from our dominance?

Two disallowed goals not in the stats and hit the woodwork.

Semenyooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

[Simon bristol]

Dont need too really. If we were drawing we'd put more focus on the final third but right now the main thing is too keep possession and see the game out. Don't do anything silly. 

Yeh, and I am happy with a professional job against ultimately disappointing opposition. Just there's a little question of could/should this have been more?

And as I type Semenyo bags. Lovely for him. MOTM between him, Mawson and Palmer I assume.

Anyone else occasionally seeing a computer mouse coming across the screen?

I thought one of those emails which tells me that they have my entire search history and aren’t afraid to use it unless I pay up was becoming a reality! 

[Alan Dicks]

I’m so pleased for the lad.

As Jeremy Kyle would say “he is NOT the father!”

[Selred]

Deserved. 

[brady bunch]

Well that’s a perfect end to the night

[ReggyRed]

Palmer needs to start.

[dunsteral]

with 2 center halves out injured and palmer taking his chance will Dean change to a different formation on saturday?

[Red Army 75]

Brilliant football 

[Sturny]

You could see badly Semenyo wanted to be on the score sheet, he 100% deserves it MOTM

[the1stknowle]

What a player Chris Martin is. 
That is all.

I agree but they are terrible!

Still got to beat what's in front of you, and this lot beat a full strength Cardiff side only the other week. How many times have we played 'poor' sides over the last few seasons (including teams near the bottom of the Champ) and looked sluggish, disinterested and generally moving the ball at the pace of a slug after too many pellets. Weird negative view point to have. Sit down, pour yourself a beer and enjoy.

Hesgoal have Northamptonshire radio commentators

Baccinson

Nagger

[BanburyRed]

That goal was even better!  Some very clever passing and angles.  City look like they're enjoying playing.

[BCFC Rich]

Some lovely football there! Get in.
