OK, so what would you do? Play the game against Man Utd in front of a capacity crowd of 6,000 at Sixfields in front of your own fans and get gate receipts of say, 100k, some which goes to the FA, some to Man Utd leaving you maybe 30k. And maybe have a tiny chance of an upset.

Or play the game at Old Trafford, give your fans a great day out, give your players probably their one and only chance of playing there and get a share of gate receipts well in excess of 1m.

Think I would have to say the latter.

Cobblers ;)

Play at home, get the draw and then a replay at Old Trafford.

Northampton cannot change the game to OT. They have a relatively new, League approved standard ground, thus they are required to play their matches there.

If they want to play at OT they will have to get themselves a replay (chance would be a fine thing).
