Story
The Trust is launching a fighting fund to help save Northampton Town Football Club. We are trying to raise £100,000 initially. Almost 46,000 Cobblers fans went to Wembley in 1998 to cheer on their local team - almost 1 in 4 of the population of the town. Livelihoods of the staff are at risk.

8 years agoAfter yet another day filled with drama at Sixfields, with a takeover bid almost complete and the police raiding the stadium, I should like to take this opportunity to say thank you to everyone who has contributed to the #savethecobblers crowdfunding appeal. We've seen donations large and small, from near and far from across the football community and beyond. It has given a massive boost to the campaign. The messages of support have kept up the spirits of all the volunteers who have helped with the appeal. More importantly we have been able to provide financial support to staff who have not been paid for two months, and in so doing they have helped keep the club running during what must have been some of the darkest days of NTFC. The takeover isn't yet complete - we still need council ratification. I am sure we'll still need to draw upon these funds in the coming days. Once again, THANK YOU! With your generosity, I am sure we'll survive. Kevin & the NTFC Supporters Trust
