I am.
+1
Hopefully lewi Williams and James Harrison have a bit left in the tank after playing for Corby against Man City in the fa youth cup tonight. I reckon we have got a chance if we can defend a bit better than in recent weeks. Hopefully we get a good crowd as well

Woodford disposed of Peterborough Utd in the Cup tonight thanks to a 2-1 win.
It was my lad who did the damage, with 2 classic goals- same as he did to you last week ;) .
Lets hope you get rid of one of the other 'big boys' now !!
Just got home from work, quick change of clothes and over I come - can't wait, as excited as a great big excited thing from excitedsville A real test for our boys tonight and one where they will really need to step up their game. Hope we get a good turn-out and that everyone enjoys themselves !!

Wow, well done to Woodford!
What sort of team did Peterborough United bring?
It wasn't their full U18s team. There was a mix of U18s and U17s.
From the Northants League website:- Congratulations Woodford!
The league sends its congratulations to West Division club Woodford United.
Woodford ousted npower Championship side Peterborough United`s youth side from the NFA County U18 Cup on Wednesday night.
A brace from Ed Kostiuk helped the villagers beat Posh 2-1 at Byfield Road.
So no-one has anything to say post-tonight's game then?
Well I'll say that to a man the boys were superb tonight - Northampton showed us a lot of respect and played a full-strength team. We got amongst them, made them work hard and had a few half-chances ourselves.
Full credit to our lads, I've never seen them so sharp and competitive and if they play like that for the rest of the season they'll be very hard to beat. 2-0 was probably a little harsh on us this evening, 1-0 would have been a fairer reflection of the game.
Have to agree with AK we played a team who beat football cv 11-1 in the last round and competed all over the park, they punished one mistake to get the first goal, and got another at the end when fitness was showing who trains everyday.
Am massively proud of everyone on the football side.
It's a shame we didn't get more than 337 on the attendance though.
