Watch: Saints' Alex Coles wants potholes tackled

Northampton Saints player Alex Coles shared his concerns over potholes during the team's post-match celebrations on Sunday.

Saints beat Exeter 26-17 in Saturday's final at Twickenham and received a hero's welcome and a victory parade through the town.

Fans cheered in front of the stage outside the Northampton Guildhall, as Coles said: "They're a joke. We need to get them sorted out."

As well as potholes, Coles also used his speech to advocate for more consistent bin collections, twice per week.

Richard Butler, cabinet member for highways and transport at West Northamptonshire Council, admitted the "the roads aren't in a great state".

He he said the Reform UK-led authority was making both "emergency, short-term repairs" and "pushing hard with planned maintenance".
