          Not sure I have the brain cells remaining today to justify your hope in any way! Nice knotty looking puzzle though

            The Cobblers - Northampton Town FC - so I would guess starts with ant
            The thatcher thing if its in reverse it's probably anti something
            W P Firth or should it be W P Frith?

                    It is not anjou but it is W P Frith Am's mate. You are looking for a musical name........

                        Is The Cobblers linked to Northampton Town FC?
