Here are our player ratings from the PTS. ..
1. Jonathan Mitchell
He was rooted to the line for the best chance of the game when Wyke poked over following a corner. Good handling as Power and O'Brien had a go from range but there was nothing else to worry him... 7 Photo: Pete Norton
2. Lloyd Jones
A very solid first week back at the club. Didn't put a foot out of wrong defensively and his aerial prowess helped Town stifle Wyke and co for the large majority... 7.5
3. Cian Bolger
Came out on top in his tussle with Wyke and was the linchpin of an excellent defensive display from the Cobblers with Sunderland limited to precious few clear chances... 8
4. Alan Sheehan
Steady and secure again for the hour he was on the pitch. Cobblers will hope the problem that forced him off is nothing serious as he's quickly become an important cog in Curle's defence... 7.5 Photo: Pete Norton
