Have Cobblers made Ngwa and Connor available for FA Cup games?

Re: [ Mon 29th Aug ] v St Ives Town, KO 3pm SLPDC AWAY
Couldn't make today's game and can't make the next few either, so I can't comment on the performance. However taking the result at face value, it does feel now like the FA Cup tie at Enfield is turning in to a huge game. This start to the season, against mediocre opposition, would have been Burge's worst nightmare but in truth, I think it is the scenario we all feared becoming reality after pre-season.
As I said a few weeks ago I can accept that it's a work in progress but we shouldn't be accepting of the current state of affairs just because it's Burge and just because it's a new team. The amount of players lost seems like it was largely out of his hands but it was his decision to build such an inexperienced squad. It's hard enough for a brand new team of experienced players to come together, but for a group of young lads like this, this run won't be doing them any favours.
We simply cannot let another week go by without adding some experience to this team.

Getting a goal scorer is 100% a must now , had enough of the “lads will come good give them time” . It’s seems unfair now for Sneds defence and maybe midfield now without goals being scored. Only a matter of time in a game now that we will lose as we don’t score enough!!!!
Enfield in very good form , will be gut wrenching if we lose out in 3rd qualifying rd again!

A man that knows how to find the back of the net is a necessity now.
First half we were very good, goal should never had been disallowed. We need to stop messing about with it in defence because the goals we're letting in are very soft.

This result look much worse on the face of it then the 90 minutes actually represented.
For sure, a devastating result, but over he course of the game we were by far the best footballing side. We kept the ball on the deck, played some great stuff, Jesse was immense I. The middle and Jensen put in a hell of a shift.
The disallowed goal was a sucker punch and the one that counted we took really well. I'll avoid the cliche of "trust the process" but this is the best football I've seen a diamonds team play I'm a long time.
Of course we can't let the results co to use like this and experience is a must, but it's not a goalscorer we need. Today we did more than enough going forward to secure the win, but all three goals were out own fault. We absolutely gave the game away today and that's the real concern. We need to toughen up at the back

The table doesn’t lie . I think most teams would accept ugly route 1 football to get them points and up the table.rdusher wrote: Mon Aug 29, 2022 5:49 pm This result look much worse on the face of it then the 90 minutes actually represented.
