    10 minutes was added on. It's not so much time wasting as interrupting the momentum.

    If only they had oil. The U.S. would have 'sorted' this years ago.

    Uninspiring, deflated and limp with the Mrs rubbing my back and telling me it’s ok as I sob uncontrollably….but enough about my love life, as for the football I haven’t a clue 🤷🏻‍♂️

    Hi Rams, I commented on the reverse fixture when you battered us earlier in the season so thought I would do the same just to give some context from the other side.
    A very different game to the one at Pride Park earlier in the season. The San Sixfields pitch is much smaller which definitely helps us, particularly against the big boys in the division. We have taken a pasting of pretty much all of the teams at the top of the table away from home this season, whilst at home managed mostly narrow defeats instead.
    No doubt that you should have scored at least one of the two chances in the first half, or at the very least worked the keeper, one of them goes in and you dont lose the game without a shadow of a doubt. The game earlier in the season you were picking holes in between our midfield and defense with ease, also NML pace was a constant threat. However in this game were clearly more compact and outside of those opportunities it didn't feel like you created a huge amount of clear cut chances. It was noticeable that you were much more direct this game for whatever reason, which I am far more confident of us deadling with. I know you have a number of bodies out, but we have 10 out (mostly in defence) so the injury list was similar on both sides.
    I thought the goal was a really well taken finish, definite foul in the build up but the defending after that would be pretty poor. Your full back (Wilson I think) also definitely handled it in the second half with no one around him. 
    I sit in the end where Bradley got his red, he definitely put his head in. Don't get me wrong i dont think Monthe is going to require a trip to the hospital but unfortunately you have to go down to almost bring it to attention. Thought it was poor from a guy who is that experienced and was seemingly always looking for physicality in the game. Yes we tried to slow down the game, no doubt about it. If i was an away fan I would be furious and hope the ref would stop it. But to add some context our season has been petering out to a degree with mid table safety and clearly our manager has given them a rocket pointing out there are still points to play for, there was not a lack of effort on our point despite little to play for seemingly. To be honest we are doing about as well as a club our size could be expected to do, as we were on of the favorites for the drop.
    I hope you go up, clearly a huge club that should not be at this level (plus dont want Peterborough to go up). I am guessing there is a big split in the fanbase over the manager, that was evident by the booing of one of the substitutions which you don't expect from a team that are fighting for the title. As a completely neutral observer Warne to me sits in the Gareth Ainsworth esque category of managers. Likeable character and personable, but with limitations at a higher level and in developing a more free flowing style, it dosnt seem like the best fit. Playing Pompey and Peterborough recently (both away so different challenges I guess) but they seemed much more composed in their style of play and just seemed to have more ways to hurt us.
    Hopefully your injury woes ease up a little and all the best for the rest of the season.

    He walked off without waiting for the red. That makes it fairly obvious.

    There absolutely is and with Nelson and Cashin we have an opportunity to keep it nil in any game, at this level, but without NML we lose a lot going forward. CBT has an opportunity. I just hated what I saw from Derby yesterday, as I said in the matchday chat, the first 30mins was like a bad Sunday league game. Mansfield and Colchester were on Sky before our game started and it was night and day between what both Northampton and Derby produced.
    My problem under Warne is that there has never been any control to what we’re doing. It’s all forced, erratic football. He made the point that the championship is easier to manage in because it’s all coached, League One throws up different challenges. My opinion would be to at least try and offer some controlled possession to our play and not always play the percentages.

    Check the Warne interview post match. I’m sure he said we won’t see him again this season

    It's a good chance but not a sitter.
    Smashed at him from 10 yards away through a group of players, bouncing in front of him on his weaker foot.
    Adams missed the easiest chance by far.

    He's got the starting line up wrong and the subs. The first half was wonderful compared to this.
    I cannot see us scoring in open play.
    They have looked more like scoring than us second half.
