Cobblers loan round-up: Waters and Iaciofano find the net on a good weekend for loanees
Billy Waters came off the bench to score what was effectively the winning goal during Cheltenham Town’s 3-1 victory at Crewe Alexandra, left unmarked to head home Chris Hussey’s cross with 16 minutes to go.
Joe Bunney played an important role for Rochdale who extended their unbeaten run to four games with a 1-1 draw at Gillingham. Bunney’s well-worked free-kick saw Ian Henderson strike first at Priestfield before the home side replied to keep Dale inside the League One relegation zone.
