Get in!!!! It's felt like these last few games, even the last couple of losses - we've been in the game and becoming harder to beat. Like the sides finally starting to gel together - well deserved lads

The improvement in this team over the last few games is there to be seen by everyone! We deserved 3 points on Saturday and we certainly worked our socks off to get them tonight! Well done to Chris and the boys, you were outstanding tonight!!
Bring on Tamworth!

Excellent performance (particularly with 6 changes from Saturday) squad starting to come together. Imperative we keep the majority of these lads for next season. Future starting to look brighter now

Wouldn't it be great to chuck a spanner into Tamworths promotion hopes on Saturday

Fantastic result, well done all the staff and players, another all round great performance as well. And to top it off another clean sheet, more clean sheets in 4 days than we have had in 8 months!!
And yes, definitely essential we keep the majority of this team, would be great to get a head start to preparations for next season's push to come straight back up, particularly the two former Cobblers Harriman and Hughes, they could boss step 4. Amazing how positive it is right now just days after relegation was confirmed.

Fantastic result!
I had resigned ourselves to finishing rock bottom, but Hednesford and possibly Bedford could be caught to restore a tiny margin of pride if we can follow these results up with a mini run of form in the last 6 games.
Also I did think that if there were to be any post season shenanigans with other teams for whatever reason and the FA start handing out reprieves then being 20th rather than 22nd would be beneficial.
Obviously, I'm not hoping or expecting a downfall of other sides, and I suspect some may advocate that relegation may be the best outcome for us in the long term but worth considering.
