Been said already. Lose tonight and I have a feeling that it might be curtains for Noel, which would be a real shame. C'mon URZZZZZZ, let's get a win

Great to have Williams back. Don’t think Jacob is nearly as bad as some say.

Marriott out is a big concern given his goals. Big day for Ehibhatiomhan.

Elliott had better perform after being rather mediocre in his last few starts.

Wow this has to be one of the lowest attendances I've seen for a midweek league match.

Wingers should learn to cross from Savage!

Ritchie should have been on the end of that Lane cross, but he didnt even try far post because he knew he's too slow to get there.

Creating lots of opportunities, but need to make one clear cut and finish it.

Sloppy, they should have scored there. Stevens really isn't a patch on Pereira, but he was just about big enough there.

Elliott is a very lucky boy, that was an unnecessary attempt to chest the ball and it clearly hit his arm, which was clearly up.

Fairly typical. Decent performance. Creating half chances. Plus a couple of near gifts.

3 fine saves by their keeper, really should be in front.

Look decent but not particularly threatening. Few decent crosses I guess, but nobody to attack it.

Cobblers really not very good, which probably means a 1-0 defeat.

Decent enough so far, should be winning this rather than the 0-0 it's looking like

Do feel Marriott probably would have got and taken a chance.

Kelvin's having some nearly moments. You can just see the lack of confidence and certainty in that final third across the front players.

Elliott doing ok, bar nearly gifting a pen.

Ugh so over this walking pace, fragile defense and lack of composure up front. We keep looking like we're about to turn a corner only to slip back...midfield also looks ropey Savage having an iffy game and Eliot must think he's Messi with outside of the boot crosses :|

Not the convincing performance to build on Cardiff people wanted.

Gone flat. Northampton are defending this much better, giving us little to work with.
