Newport had enough chances to score but their failure to hit the target, not doing so once despite 13 attempts in all, made it a comfortable night for Town's keeper, who kept his third clean sheet in five games. Kicked well... 7
Just so solid, composed and disciplined again. Hardly put a foot wrong and even added some much-needed impetus from right-back at times. Unlucky not to win a penalty when his cross struck an arm... 8 CHRON STAR MAN
His long throws posed a real problem for County and Cobblers eventually made one count, though not sure he can claim much credit! Had his troubles against Matt at the back but largely defended well... 7
Again it wasn't always easy against County's physical forward men but for the most part the skipper deal with the threat, making one great block from Amond in particular. Might also have netted himself a couple of times... 7
Excellent reading of the game to make crucial clearances and prevent a couple of tap-ins. Didn't offer too much in attack aside from his set-pieces, but contributed to another clean sheet... 7
