Have they still got a three sided ground?
Not quite. They stand to the right is used, but is not complete.

Let's not get pernickety, even three sides is better than their old home at the County Ground which only had stands on one side and at one end ! It was in a corner of the cricket field, with just a rope put up to separate it from the wide grass expanses ! :p

They have completed the fourth side now.

I was in Northampton for work a few years back and I stopped to get a coffee.
McDonalds overlooks the football ground and you could see right into it from the car park.
It wasn’t a match day but I’m sure you could have watched most of a game from there.
Perhaps subsequent building has blocked the view?

It would be pretty much exactly 14 years to the day since the YST had its first outing away at Burton! Sadly it's looking unlikely that this particular member will be in attendance, trains from London are not happening and it's looking difficult to get tickets.

Long live the YST 👑

Engineering works in the Milton Keynes area makes this a very difficult train journey :(

Only trains I've found via London are to Wellingborough. Seemingly the west coast mainline is a no go that weekend.
