Sampson delighted with three points

Northampton manager Ian Sampson has given his views on this evening's game at Edgar Street.

"I was pleased with the performance and we showed a lot more professionalism to see the game out," he said.

"We were tight when we didn't have the ball, we worked on that in training on Monday and we're delighted to come away with the three points.

"The incident early on in the game where Hereford scored was quite bizarre but their player was definitely off-side. I think the fourth official and Craig Hinton said something to the referee and thankfully they came to the correct decision.

"I thought the players that came into the team did well and it's good to have that competition for places.

"Hopefully this is the start of another good run for us and we are aiming to get into the play-offs. That is a tough ask but all we can do is just try and have another good run and if we can do that then we will see where that takes us."
