I learned how to read league tables in 65/66.
That season Northampton Town were relegated from Division One and City were promoted to it as Second Division Champions.
I've remembered Northampton's top flight status ever since.
In 1990ish I went out with a girl from Northampton, and I remember thinking is was a curious town, but quite pleasant compared to Manchester and Liverpool where I worked at the time.

I've been from time to time when I've been bored and in town, I live a few miles outside, and even without these latest problems the ground and club have always felt a little weird.
But...
The area surrounding Northampton is bloody lovely with some great villages and country pubs. The town itself has a few nice spots, a few good pubs, a couple of great restaurants and some dodgy areas. It could be anywhere in Britain.

True but its an ugly place - go on streetview and go down the seafront if you haven't been its fucking awful - from the laughable " vertical pier" that looks like a half finished fairground ride to the massive windfarm 10ft off the beach ( I kid you not ) its an eyesore not to be missed. Soon to be overshadowed by the only thing worse than a steelworks - a derelict disused steelworks.
