Northampton Town vs Torquay United 24/8/13

[tomogull]

I'm looking into my crystal ball. Yes .... it's beginning to clear ..... hang on a minute. Now I can see what's there. It says that Brucie is going to say we're gonna lose on Saturday.

[chunkygull]

well it seems like it has been forgotten there is actually a football match tomorrow.

i'm going for a 1-1 draw.

not quite confident of getting that first win yet. i suspect some tweaks need to be made in a couple positions for that to happen. but it doesnt seem like we are a bad side by any means.

[jonnyfive]

Would bite your hand off for a draw tomorrow. Our fragile form will face a stern test against last year's bulky play-off finalists.

Ricey will need to be on form, as will Downes and Pearce.

Sadly I think I'll witness a 0-2 defeat. Hope I'm wrong of course!

1-2 to us ! Hawley to score, & the other one from Bodin/Chappell or Benners ( having trouble with the crystal ball, can't quite make out the celebration).(if I'm right, I want full respect from FerrariLover & Brucie!)

Anyone near the Northampton area know what the weather is doing. Just about to leave Littlehampton and it has been chucking it down for the last 20 minutes. Some bad thunder too.

Been tipping it down all morning but stopped (for now). Think it's going to carry on that way.

Looking forward to seeing the Gulls for the first time this season. Just looking into our appalling record at Sixfields. We seem to only win there every 10 years. 1993, 2003...hopefully 2013!

Raining on and off here in Launton, Bicester Oxon but nothing to indicate any danger to the game being played. I'm only 45 minutes down the A43 so i would think you are safe to travel mate. See you all there then.

And if you're wrong..??

[Robiberto22]

have a bad feeling for this one, im gonna be positive tho and hope we can sneak a win or a point! COYG!!!

[tktufc91]

Tried to call the club for weather info but they've shut for the weekend. For a huge club like AC Northampton, this is pretty poor.

[stratfordgull]

40 miles away and it's grey and looking like it will stay that way so dress for rain.

Was going to bike it down but drowned rat look doesn't suit me so will take drier option of four wheels.

Not expecting a win but I am looking forward to seeing my first game of the season at Coventry City's home stadium and with the Cobblers likely to field at least four former City players in their squad.

COYY
