Northampton Match Thread Carabao Cup KO 3pm 08/08/2026

[foxile5]

Russell Martin dressing like he's trying to get into Berghain. 

[Dan]

Christ you can see why these have lost about 20 in a row.

[RedSoxUK]

Take that Andrew Hughes you **** 

[whoareyaaa]

Thomas is doing ok tbf but Watson for Mav is a must second half 

[moore_94]

Rather unsurprisingly our right side with the younger players looks better than the left side with the experienced players

[fazzyfox]

Yay .

 

Anyway, back to how s**t we are….

[Jakemoore]

I know we’re a disgruntled fan base and rightly so, but can we wait more than 17 minutes before we totally turn on the team?!

[Foxes96]

Really liking the look of JJ

[whoareyaaa]

Souttar and Okoli good partnership 

[Hales]

Our youngsters are good 💙

[AKCJ]

Joseph looking really busy. Very similar to the last JJ. 

 

Wondering how you get him and Aluko in the same team.

[ARTY_FOX]

So is it looking good or awful?

The triangle of Joseph, Alves, Braybrooke looks comfortably the best aspect of the team

Play Aluko left back

Meh. Pretty scary at the back 3 times already, scored a corner, general play not great.

Braybrooke, Alves and Joseph looking solid and exciting. Same old shit from Thomas, Reid and Mavididi. I expect that Chaplin McFarlane and Watson will have no problem getting into this team.

[eblair]

I just feel nothing watching this, excited when youngsters touch the ball

 

Have no interest in skipp, okoli or souttar touching the football when we’re in a league one side. Illustrates exactly why we are where we are

Which one. 

 

We've always got a JJ. Think it's become a new fundamental rule of lcfc squad building.

Really promising. Feels incredible not despising one of our players 😏

shite. Goal is basically all we've done, should have been 1 down in the first minute.

 

Basically the only bright sparks are Alves and Joseph.

I appreciate and acknowledge the sentiment but the ownership have employed a man who embodies the style of football that's caused the disgruntled fans and the relegations. 

 

Patience with watching us **** about with the ball at the back has evaporated and people simply don't want to see it. You can't keep relying on goodwill and making appointments that perpetuate the source of gruntles. 

 

 

[Pita]

I am just looking forward to seeing a good attacking game

[HitchinFox]

Both against Genoa and in this game so far, Cullen has looked awful. 

 

 

[dmayne7]

Mavididi as crap as ever
