Northampton Friendly Announced

16/05/2026, 09:32:33 BST

Cobblers! No its true.

Citys first announced friendly will be at Sixfields on 18th July at 2pm.

The last time we played the Cobblers was 11th August 2021 when we lost 2-1 at home in the League Cup. The last time we played at Sixfields was 28th January 2017 in a League 1 fixture and we lost 3-0. A personal low point was the 1-0 loss in 1990 in the FA Cup in atrocious weather, sat under a temporary canvas covered stand that looked like it would give way at any moment with the weight of water. That was the year after the Sutton debacle.

If you can't get a ticket (not on sale yet) you can always stand on the hill to watch and relive the good old days.....

Northamptons capacity is only around 8500 I think it will be full of Sky Blues fans
