Key Events
- Forest visit Sixfields for Town’s fourth friendly

78: Comical football all round, really should be 2-1 but Connolly spoons over with the goal gaping after a defensive mix-up.
67: Triple change for the Cobblers. Harriman, Nelson and Maxted replace McGowan, Guthrie and Roberts.
53: Fabulous dipping strike by Lolly whistles just over. Visitors have upped the ante significantly this half.
Half-time
Really enjoyed that half. Town started well and were the better side for most of it. McGowan the pick at right-back but Kabamba, Pinnock and Flores have looked bright.
28: McGowan now pops up at the other end and sends in a fine cross, which Kabamba heads towards goal. Smith claws it away and then saves Ashley-Seal’s follow-up, though the striker was offside.
27: Nearly half-an-hour in. Things have settled down after a lively start. Pretty even stuff. McGowan v Mighten is a great battle down this near side.
20: Problem for Ashley-Seal. Took a whack earlier on and has gone down again. OK to continue for now though.
