@ZachJeacock @algerj @ntfc Welcome to the Cobblers, Zach!

[Tony Bonsignore @Tony_Bee]

@JakeSharpeBBC @TogletTim Brilliant! Excited to hear the new man. Already the horror of last season is starting to recede into the rear view mirror.

[Tony Bonsignore @Tony_Bee]

@ntfc Good luck Chris! Here's to the new - and hopefully much better - season.

[Northampton Town @ntfc]

@JakeSharpeBBC I hope he comes back, though I can’t see it. Talented footballer, sadly trapped in a very poor team for most of this season.

@JakeSharpeBBC Crikey, where should we start?

First bus 10:05; last bus 1:20…

In our latest piece looking at the state of modern Britain, we’ve been to the Isle of Sheppey in Kent, where public debt is making life harder for residents and adding to their cost of living pressures. With @Eley90

@TeynHub Not bad. Probably wouldn't make it into this Cobbers team, though.

@James_ChronNTFC The goal machine comes on.

[Tony Bonsignore @Tony_Bee]

@JakeSharpeBBC Gardeners Question Time definitely the highlight of the match so far.

[Tony Bonsignore @Tony_Bee]

@javerill14 DId the same last week. It came after that enforced break over Easter, which I unexpectedly enjoyed. The season was kinda over for me after Vale/ Orient. I don't want to watch most of these players again. Or listen to Calderwood. Proper fresh start needed to get us all fired up.

[Tony Bonsignore @Tony_Bee]

@James_ChronNTFC You're not enjoying this are you?

[Tony Bonsignore @Tony_Bee]

@JakeSharpeBBC What do you think it is, Jake? Absence of any quality? Terrible management? Poor attitude? Some disquiet or problems behind the scene? All of the above?

[Tony Bonsignore @Tony_Bee]

@James_ChronNTFC This team is atrocious. They will surely struggle in League 2. Wholesale changes needed. Possibly apart from Guinness-Walker, would you keep any of these players by choice? They can't attack, pass, shoot, defend, create, press, tackle... did I miss anything?

[Tony Bonsignore @Tony_Bee]

@James_ChronNTFC Nesta Guinness Walker. Closely followed by, er, er....

[Tony Bonsignore @Tony_Bee]

@joel_colson @CobblersToMe Exactly. Yes we beat Blackpool and Bolton, but both times we got away with it. Didn't expect it to be this bad, but I did expect us to end up in a relegation scrap.

But.. I thought our defeat to Cardiff at home was our strongest performance. That was the moment of peak hope!

@JakeSharpeBBC @andydurrant75 Too early for an emergency cobblers podcast?

[Tony Bonsignore @Tony_Bee]

@JakeSharpeBBC Good qs Jake! FWIW, my 2p:

Mistakes were in summer. Decent players let go (eg MacGowan, Pinnock, Odimayo), incoming not same quality. Lack of creativity/ leadership. Got lucky some games, in tight division, then teams easily worked us out.

Trying to be optimistic! Need help.

[Tony Bonsignore @Tony_Bee]

@andydurrant75 @greatesthitsuk @charlescommins @NicholaHunterW Great season...attacking football all the way...fans appreciative...unlucky to go down...optimistic about the future...nailed on to be promoted back up next season...can't wait to renew season ticket.

Is this basically what you said, Andy, on behalf of us all?
