Cobblers reached the 60-point mark in League One for only the second time this century after Louis Appéré’s stoppage-time goal grabbed a point in Saturday’s final game of the season against Barnsley.

Herbie Kane scored for Barnsley but Appéré’s late heroics took Town to the 60-point mark. Here are our player ratings from Oakwell...

Not at his sharpest. Loose in possession and did not last much longer than an hour... 5.5

Asked to do a job at wing-back again with Koiki absent and he was solid enough defensively but offered little going the other way... 6

Offered decent control in the first half as Cobblers matched Barnsley without creating too much. Squeezed out of the game thereafter until being replaced... 6

Started his 46th league game of the season - a phenomenal effort - and took his total appearances for the Cobblers to 97 across two seasons. And whilst he didn't reach previous heights, he sprinkled some stardust onto a largely cagey contest. Launched the ball forward for the late leveller and enjoyed a nice moment with the fans after full-time. As loans go, it doesn't get much better... 7.5
