PICTURE GALLERY: Fleetwood Town 2 Northampton Town 0

The Cobblers' survival hopes took another serious hit on Saturday as they were beaten 2-0 by relegation rivals Fleetwood Town at the Highbury Stadium.

Town travelled to the north west coast protecting an unbeaten record on the road in 2018, but they were undone by a goal in each half from the Cod Army.

It was a poor performance from the Cobblers, with boss Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink admitting the 500-plus supporters who made the long trip deserved better.
