Christmas period crucial for getting out of trouble

With Christmas approaching there’s, as always, a hectic line up matches that will be looking to dodge the cold weather and help the Cobblers through to January hopefully in good spirits. It’s traditionally a make or break period for many clubs and the following few weeks should hold a good indication as to which end of the table we’ll be battling in come May.

It’s not the easiest start to the run this weekend away at Broadhall Way with Stevenage taking well to the challenge of League Two football and a match for anyone at home. Home games against Morecambe (18th Dec) and Burton Albion (Boxing Day) give us a chance of racking up much needed points while the last game of 2010 sees us travel to Edgar Street to face fellow strugglers and current bottom club Hereford United.

So there’s plenty of scope to dig ourselves out of trouble in these festive times...hopefully by the time we enter 2011 we’ll be breathing in the chilly air a little easier!
