A Day To Remember - Wilder

Last updated : 07 November 2015 By CNS Staff

Northampton Town manager Chris Wilder has said that today was a day to remember.

Speaking about his side's 2-1 win at Coventry City, Wilder said to the Press Association: "To see that many supporters was outstanding and it made the hairs on the back of my neck stand on end.

"You find out a lot about people in bad times. When you have to dig in as players, staff and most importantly fans, people stand up to be counted.

"Everyone who has been here today can be immensely proud of themselves and we have thousands of others who could not get here today.

"I have got massive respect for supporters of teams who are not glamour clubs. It would be easy for people in the Northampton area to support Chelsea or Manchester United and go to watch them play every five years because this is not glamorous.

"We work in football for days like this. People were diving in, throwing themselves into tackles and that is what it is all about. "It is a day to remember for what is a proud club."
