Northampton Town – Interesting Facts
Northampton Town F.C. was founded on March 6, 1897.
The club was formed at The Princess Royal Inn by a group of local schoolteachers and a prominent lawyer, A.J. “Pat” Darnell.
Northampton Town FC has only ever had one official name change in its history: it was briefly called Northampton Football Club for a short period in 1897 before objections from the local rugby team led to the adoption of the name Northampton Town Football Club.
Milton Keynes Dons
Oxford United
Cambridge United
Peterborough United
Kettering Town
The Cobblers: This is the primary and most famous nickname. It was adopted as a tribute to Northampton’s rich historical shoe-making industry, which has been central to the town for centuries.
Shoe Army: A more modern, alternative nickname embraced by supporters that also plays on the town’s historical shoemaking heritage
The County Ground
Years: 1897 – 1994
Details: The Cobblers shared this venue (famously known for its cricket pitch on the open side) with the Northamptonshire County Cricket Club for nearly a century.
Sixfields Stadium
Years: 1994 – Present
Details: Located on the west side of Northampton, the club moved here in October 1994 to get their own purpose-built home. Due to corporate sponsorships, this stadium has been known by a few different names:

PTS Academy Stadium (2018–2020)
Sixfields Stadium (2020–2021) – Reverted to its original name temporarily.
