The new Cobblers home kit will be unveiled on Saturday - but unfortunately will not be available for supporters to buy.

Due to an unforeseen delay in the supply chain, delivery of the kit will now be delayed until August 5.

The kit will be available to pre-order online and in-store from Saturday, and there is the bonus that anybody attending the open day and pre-ordering the new kit will receive a free Nike football on the day.

All kits will be available for collection from August 5, prior to the first game of the season against Fleetwood, or with the option of free delivery.
