Cobblers fans are set to increase the pressure on Northampton Borough Council’s further delays to the regeneration of Sixfields by marching in protest from the Guildhall to Sixfields on Bank Holiday Monday before the Scunthorpe game.
NBC have time and time again put deadlines for decisions back and the latest date that was stated last week said that a decision couldn’t be made until 2011! That’s a DECISION can’t be made.
David Cardoza has been patient for long enough and slammed the latest setback, saying that words are no consolation at this point. Ground sharing with the Saints and even Franchise F.C. have been mentioned if Sixfields delays continue but we don’t want to lose our home of just over ten years because of a useless council. The football club is at the heart of the community but these delays are getting longer and longer.
The fans have tried protests before, most notably at Stevenage in the FA Cup last season with the “red card” campaign and more recently at the live Sky game with Bristol City back at the start of the season.
Whether or not the latest demonstration will come to anything is debateable but it will at least show the council once again what the club means to the fans.
For anyone wanting to join the march, it begins at Northampton Guildhall at 1pm.

Your Cobblers need YOU!
Show them that you need the council's full support to become a Championship team and that Northampton WILL benefit from it.
