Re: Northampton town match thread

Kept my head down until I'd read the postings of those in the know before adding my two penny worth.

Tactically I thought Beattie had it all wrong by trying to lomp high ball after high ball over their defence which were big blokes particular their number 2 who never looked comfortable. Running at them with ball at feet would have been a far better option as the high ball always resulted in at tacks breaking down.
Even at corners futile high balls were dealt with easily by the cobblers when a variation of short or low corners could not have perhaps had big defenders struggling. Beattie must have a few training ground ploys up his sleeve.
In my oppinion Danny Webber either has no legs left or was'nt that interested as he appeared to be cruising and should have been substituted a lot earlier, whereas I was more impressed with our number 24 (I think is name Odejayi).
Northampton were there for the taking but our inept tactics or lack of them were our downfall. Perhaps confidence even after a good run is still a little low.
Fall marks to the small crowd of lads at the back left of our section who never stopped singing ant chanting throughout the game.
