The club would like to say a big thank you to all who attended as well as event sponsor, the Sixfields Travel Club and the 125 sponsor, All Things Business.
As the season goes on, the Cobblers head into its home Papa John’s Trophy fixture games and will be welcoming Arsenal U21s to Sixfields on Tuesday October 18, when there is a special matchday hospitality offer for those supporters who want to enjoy the game in style.
It’s something that might be perfect for anyone who hasn’t tried Sixfields hospitality before, or maybe for a Northampton-based Arsenal fan coming along to see the Gunners’ stars of the future! The price per person is £39.95 inc VAT – this includes executive tickets, a two-course meal in the 1897 All Things Business Suite, a parking space, matchday programme, pre match tour and all the regular pre- and post-match entertainment.
