Northampton's League One games against Mansfield Town and Bolton Wanderers moved for TV coverage
Northampton’s League One fixtures against Mansfield Town (November 8th) and Bolton Wanderers (January 4th) will both kick-off early after being selected for live television coverage.
The visit of Mansfield to Sixfields in November will now kick-off at 12.30pm and be shown on Sky Sports Plus, while the trip to Bolton in early 2025 has been moved to a midday start and will be shown on the same channel. It’s already been confirmed that Northampton’s home clash with Blackpool on September 13th will kick-off at 12.30pm.
Every match on opening weekend, with Cobblers at Wigan this Saturday (3pm kick-off), is also being shown on Sky Sports Plus as part of the new broadcast deal announced last year.
