Hello all.
I live in Northampton, just a stone's throw from Franklin's Gardens.  Born and bred in Pembrokeshire - and I used to go with my parents to most (Llanelli) home game growing up in the nineties.  

Don't get back to Wales much these days, but wanted to show my support this great institution stays with us all.  I am determined to go to at least one 'home' game and hopefully get a ticket for Northampton this year.  

I have also done what I never thought I would and have subscribed to Premier Sports so I can watch every game.  Hate the idea of the extra sub and have always made do with BBC/S4C coverage, but Premier ask why you are subscribing and so the more paid bums on sofas (as well as terraces) the more economical the club will be.

Best of luck for Saturday and hope it's a sell out :)

Similar to you CBX.
Live milton keynes and Saints season ticket holder.
Originally Ammanford but work and life brought me here.

The people next to me and the boy in Franklin's Gardens are used to us accidentally cheering for the opposition.

Looking forward to Treviso and Scarlets coming to Northampton.

Almost impossible for us to get to a Scarlets home game but that's life

Thanks, Paul.  What a wonderfully welcoming forum this is.

Yes, same here - I got a job around here 12 year ago and the rest has followed.  I've been to a few Northampton games and cheer them on.

It's the rubbish kick off times that are the kicker for me - getting to Llanelli - I need a hotel each time, fuel, ticket and food (getting to just one game costs roughly the same as a season ticket costs).  Saturday 2.30/3pm kick offs would be doable in a day, but they're like hens teeth, unfortunately - and as far as I can see the only one this year is New Year Day!!! 

despite the horrible changes, I have always really liked European Cup games.
