While we’re waiting, could we please have your top three manager candidates for #ntfc …

First rumour of the summer.
Has scored 17 goals in the National League this season.

Northampton and Bristol Rovers are among a number of clubs chasing Eastleigh striker Aaron Blair. The 25-year-old is also a target for South African Premiership side Stellenbosch. #Spitfires #ntfc #bristolrovers

This is the worst Cobblers team I've seen in my 33 years supporting the club.
There is absolutely nothing. When the going gets tough this lot absolutely crumble.
1 win in almost half a season.
The board are mainly to blame, but the coaching staff and the team are nowhere near up to the standard required for this level.

🇻🇳 We were delighted to meet the Vietnam Cobbler at the game last night.
🙏Thank you for your support, Quang!

@TheShoeArmy1897 Too far gone for any manager to come in and sort this lot out confidence is completely broken. We all know we’ll be in league 2 next season
English
Not a game we deserved to win at all but another game where we weren’t battered. It’s so close but just not good enough. Better than it has been but ultimately just short of this standard in this league.
Mansfield away Saturdays is another test but if we don’t use the break after that to give a new manager a chance then it is absolutely unequivocally League 2 next year
English
@cobblerscoombsy He’s got a nack of being in the right place at the right time and has a bit of fight about him but is very wasteful in possession
English
McGeehan and Burroughs are two of the worst footballers I have seen play for Northampton
English
@James_ChronNTFC Any danger of Perkins getting some help in that midfield?
English
@James_ChronNTFC Hi James do you have any idea when the coaching staff contracts expire?
English
@James_ChronNTFC 1. Right decision but unfortunately a couple of weeks too late although I understand why as we were in a cup semi final.
2. Losing Wheatley. Christmas Day off then a pasting at Burton. Have never really recovered.
3. Needs a fresh start CC upstairs and Sammo back with the YT
English
@TalkOfTheTeyn I’d say it’s going to be Sammo and Calderwood till the end of season. I’d like us to go for Danny Cowley from Colchester think he’d be perfect for this club but can’t see us paying any compensation. If Orient got relegated and they parted with Richie Wellens I’d be tempted by him
English
This is what Grok is throwing out.
Woody is top of the league below,
Savage is being linked with Championship clubs,
Sammo is a no from me, had a stint after Brady and did well for one game,
Sheehan is an interesting one but feel like his style isn't suited to a relegation battle...
Also I think these are taken from the betting odds from last time we were looking for a manager.

Here’s a realistic shortlist of potential new NTFC managers, based on current availability, League One fit and recent speculation: - Andy Woodman (Bromley) – proven promoter, organised and attack-minded. - Robbie Savage (Forest Green) – high-energy motivator who could spark the squad. - Ian Sampson – club legend, knows the players inside out, safe pair of hands. - Alan Sheehan – young tactician, recently freed up and hungry to prove himself. Any of these could steady the ship for the run-in. Who’s your pick?

What’s the point?
Give us your Three Word Review of the 1-0 loss at Wimbledon please Cobblers fans.
English
@James_ChronNTFC I’ll always support this club but I’m not again this season unless he’s sacked. Same shit every week
English
@TheShoeArmy1897 Shit they can’t string 2 passes together and are just lumping it forward into shit areas. I hope I’m proved wrong in the 2nd half but the players look like they’ve given up. KN is to blame he keeps doing the thing week in week out it hasn’t worked since Xmas so why keep doing it
English
So so flat. From the off. Wimbledon have been more dangerous but both teams are so poor. Head tennis in the middle of the park most of the game. Slight improvement since we went back to the 3 but toothless and lethargic going forward. Not sure what to change or who to blame
English
@James_ChronNTFC Just hope one of them can take a decent set piece
English
@James_ChronNTFC It’s not been an ideal transfer window but give them a chance Costello and Perry came in last season and proved to be decent signings so let’s hope these lads can do something similar. Hammond can be cover for Taylor & Campbell and McAdam can hopefully add something different
English
Breaking: Cobblers have signed Nottingham Forest pair Kyle McAdam and Ben Hammond on loan for the rest of the season. Full story 👇 #ntfc northamptonchron.co.uk/sport/football…
English
@James_ChronNTFC I think you’re probably right. Either that or a 4-5-1 Campbell and Perkins holding with Jacobs just behind Vale
English
Think this will be 3-4-3 with Wormleighton and Swyer at wing-back and Perkins next to Campbell in midfield #ntfc
James@James_ChronNTFC
Cobblers XI v Walsall: Burge, Burroughs, Willis, Dyche, Wormleighton, Swyer, Perkins, Campbell, Hoskins, Jacobs, Vale. Subs: Fitzsimons, McCarthy, Guthrie, Guinness-Walker, List, Edwards, Eaves. Taylor is suspended #ntfc
English
@NicholasRodney @TheShoeArmy1897 He’s a decent squad player for us would he get into the starting xl if everyone was fit? Probably not imo
English
@marcorobbo @TheShoeArmy1897 I think he’s decent enough in league 2.
English
Gunna be tough with this team… I know Guthrie probably can’t play back to back at the moment but that’s a loss.
Northampton Town@ntfc
📋 CONFIRMED: Stockport County (H) 👊 Your New Year's Day Cobblers! 💪 #ShoeArmy 👞
English
@NicholasRodney @TheShoeArmy1897 Still relatively young and has impressed at times but not good enough in possession for me. Has 2 decent players either side of him today so no excuses
English
@marcorobbo @TheShoeArmy1897 Dyche is awful. I cannot believe he’s playing at league one level. Probably playing on name merit alone
English
