I smell Gas!

It's Gas time again and this afternoon's clash at the Memorial Stadium is the start of a huge weekend for the Cobblers. The last three games have been a massive disappointment, with one point from three big games. We could maybe have been forgiven the 3-4 loss to Swindon having just beaten Stockport 4-0 the previous Saturday.

But what has followed was two poor performances, firstly at Carlisle where we managed a draw but were disappointing, before that shocker at Yeovil. Whether it would have been best to try and bounce back immediately or whether the break has done us good is up for debate but I see no better time for this extra time out for the players to realise what has happened to them.

Anything less than a draw today will set up an extremely difficult and nervy home game on Monday against Southend and if we're anything like the level we were at against Yeovil we may as well not turn up!
