Quite a few came along on Saturday and enjoyed watching the game, seeing the players they have been learning about in action, and experiencing the atmosphere of a live match. Although Cobblers lost 1-0 (boooo!), there was plenty of action to see.

Wrens class at Towcester Primary had this to say about what they had been doing during their PfS on the Road lessons and what they had learnt……

“We have been making our own football teams. We had to pick 11 people and had £50.0m. We weren’t allowed to go over it”. Hannah Farniss
