Kevin Nolan’s men are seemingly on course to preserve their League One status once again, although there's still work to be done, and this year, perhaps more than any other in recent memory, it’s a difficult one to call with many individuals impressing across the campaign but no clear standout candidate.
The team have picked up 47 points from 42 league games so far, scoring 42 goals and conceding 59, to sit 19th in League One with four fixtures to go. But who has been the pick of the bunch? Who gets your vote for top Cobbler this year? You can have your say on Twitter (tweet @James_ChronNTFC), Bluesky (message @james-chronntfc.bsky.social), Facebook (comment on ‘Northampton Town FC - Chronicle & Echo’ or ‘Northampton Chronicle Sport’ pages) or email ([email protected]). Voting closes on Tuesday, April 22nd, at midday.
Let’s take a look at this year’s runners and riders (minimum 10 league starts)…
