Looking back through the books, we’ve picked out a few players that have played for both the Cobblers and Cheltenham.
Ben Tozer.
Current Cheltenham Town skipper Ben Tozer had three separate spells with the Cobblers, originally in the form of two loan spells from Newcastle United between 2010 and 2011 which then turned into a permanent move in 2011.
He went onto spend a further four years in Northamptonshire and in the 2012/13 season was a part of their squad that defeated Cheltenham in the League Two play-off semi-finals before going onto lose 3-0 to Bradford City at Wembley.
