Cobblers score Fred sponsored by the Beermen

[gazza1988]

Boeteng fouls his man on their left wing. Northampton trying to break through putbon their right law rouls his man and is booked. 2 yards outside our area 3 yards from the byline.

Floated to the back post and they head wide.

[gazza1988]

Northampton get through our defence down their left. He advances on Pym and Pym saves. North Napton shoot wide.

[gazza1988]

6 mins announced as Northampton take a corner that's cleared.

[Staggyfox]

p--- poor

I don’t think it is actually that good tbh…

[MTFCMusings]

Two strikers up front who couldn’t trap a bag of sand.

DkD's first poor game for us, he's been quality so far.

[gazza1988]

Northampton ball over the defence and they fire into the side netting

[gazza1988]

Stags throw in taken long by Harbottle. Akins heads on and it's cleared.

Make that 4

[gazza1988]

90 seconds left.

[victor A block]

Terrible from minute 1 . Not a single player can pass or trap a ball .Abysmal .

[gazza1988]

Northampton halve tyebball on their left wing and Bowery just shoves him over. Northampton run down the clock and ref blows for full time.

[Sneag]

Well that was raspberry.

There's one thing for sure, we'll be playing them again next season as they were just as bad.

Awful game.

[BH_Stag]

Pathetic all night really. Offered nothing.

At least we can forget top 3 now, a pipe dream. We are fighting for 7th with Salford and Sutton. Time to focus on that

[lancer]

What the hell is wrong with our ability to trap and control a ball?
We just kept giving the ball away every time we got it.
Really bad day at the office

[arsene wengers coat]

Let's be right, we were no better.or worse when Quinn got sent off. It will impact us ove the next 3 games.

We just don't have the quality in depth. This season has been there for the taking and we're 8th with 12 to go. Frustrating.

[MTFCMusings]

Second half very disappointing, created very little, not helped by the idiotic Quinn. There was nothing in the game, Northampton were poor.

Play-offs at best for us with this current crop of available players.

[Stoney]

Northampton deserved that tonight, they were better than us and very solid defensively.

However if we do make the play offs I hope we get to play them again, they're nowt special. We'll do em for a third time in play offs if we get em.

Agree with BH_Stag, top 3 is gone after tonight. Let's focus on getting into the top 7 and managing the squad correctly to make sure we have players fit for the play offs.

[bellwhiff]

I wouldn’t play Quinn again all season. Complete moron going in like that.

A goal down, just bringing players on who have been out for 6 weeks, and he knows the state we have been with injuries and he goes and does that to pick up a 3 match ban. For a senior pro he is a complete liability.

Can’t afford not to with the bare bones squad.

I’ll say again, the squad is too light. Or is that not acceptable to some?

[london amber stag]

We are a Jekyll and Hyde side, annihilated the Wombles and fall to promotion contenders as usual. Play offs in doubt now due to Quinn’s sending off. We never ever learn from the previous season’s mistakes.

[cassellswasmagic]

We really are average at best. We might make the playoffs but we’re definitely not good enough to do anything. So inconsistent.

[Showaddywaddy]

Dreadful performance from the first minute.

[HitchcocksShins]

It's going to be alright lads, we'd have taken a draw going into the game and we were only a goal off getting it

Let’s hope Maris and Reed are back in 3 games time. Deserves to stay out of the side.

[St Hilary Stag]

Forget promotion ... what a shambles
