Horsfall: I'll give everything to the cause for Cobblers
New signing Fraser Horsfall has promised Cobblers fans that he 'won't leave anything on the pitch' when he puts the shirt this season.
The 23-year-old centre-back became Town's fourth signing of the summer when snapped up on a two-year deal from Macclesfield Town earlier today (Friday).

Hide AdHorsfall left Huddersfield in 2017 and plied his trade in non-league for several years, mainly at Kidderminster Harriers, before spending last season at League Two side Macclesfield.
"I'm a big, tall, physical defender but I also like to get on the ball and I want to be aggressive and give 110 per cent every game - I won't leave anything out on the pitch," said Horsfall after agreeing a two-year contract at the PTS.
"I'm ready for the step up now. I feel like I'm ready and I just want to test myself and hopefully kick-on with Northampton and be up there in League One next season.
"I backed myself when I worked my way up in non-league and I back myself again now I'm playing in League One so hopefully I can show what I'm about and see what happens from there."

Hide AdAs with Town's previous signings, the opportunity to play in League One was a big pull for Horsfall.
He added: "Obviously getting promoted was a big positive for the club last season and for me personally, a League One team is where I wanted to be and that was my ambition.
"I watched the play-offs and I really liked what I saw. I like how they play and I like the manager and as it showed in the play-offs, they're a really strong team and that's what I want to be involved in.
"I think it's a club on the up and I'm obviously delighted to now be here."
