The Nene Derby (Posh v Cobblers, Tuesday 18th)

[EricSabin]

Fizzing for this one. First game against the inbreds for a while and we've nearly sold out our 2350 allocation. Even though they seem to be going alright this year they're always moaning on Twitter about their chairman and how they're playing, and that attitude seemed to reflect in their attendance for their game Saturday against Bury, a pitiful sub 4,000. Relatively confident of a good result.

Ill be in Las Vegas whilst this is going on, gutted to be missing it! 3-0 Cobblers, easy work!

It's Nene as in hen...

It's Nene as in hen...

Let's look at a couple of other examples that end with the 'ene' suffix.

Serene

Just sayin....

Phonetically it's not right but it's always been Nene as in hen to us...and always will be until Cogenhoe comes home...

Saw in the P'Boro Telegraph they're expecting a gate of 10k on Tuesday! Their fans and official Twitter are certainly hyping it up

Are they expecting us to bring over 6k?

6 fingers maybe...

Anyway, genuinely worried about this after today's performance. A loss to the wobblers coupled with recent form will feel like the lowest point in the Macanthony era.

 

[Deepcut Cobbler]

Likewise after our own display yesterday...can we both lose?

 

[Shropshire Shoe]

Piss off page!!!

Always destined to be our little bitches...if the six fingered cretins do not put up more of a fight than that when we visit sixfingerfields then I suggest we officially remove their 'rivals' status and give it to Histon, Stamford etc (i.e. some club that will try against us and be more worthy).

 

[Deepcut Cobbler]

Second leg in a month? Pity we didn't get an away goal...

 

[Posh Hammer]

Northampton are sitting in mid table in League 1 after being promoted following years of languishing at the bottom of League 2 and are asking for their manager to be sacked.

Actually laughable.

Not all, only those who have jerky knees...

 

[THE LAST WALTZ]

To be fair, it wasn't their current manager that got them promoted was it?
