Ryan Cresswell also appealed for fans on Twitter to "find the thieves"

They were stolen from the college, which is used as a training facility by the League Two club, between 10:00 and 12:00 GMT.

The registrations for the cars are MX60 OJO for the Insignia saloon, OV12 CGO for the Mercedes and MK62 FRD for the Scirocco.

A call for help was posted on Northampton Town's Twitter account, external on Sunday, with the message: "With lads going so well, it would give them a huge boost if we could recover stolen items."

Northamptonshire Police asked for anyone with information about the theft or the whereabouts of the cars and other items to come forward.
