The Cobblers had failed to score for around eight hours before the trip but Steve Guinan, Adebayo Akinfenwa and Billy McKay were on target in a resounding victory. "It is a monkey off the team's back finally scoring," said Gray. "It was a good all-round team performance - the three strikers have scored and we have kept a clean sheet. "Steve Guinan took his goal fantastically, the penalty was well taken and we deserved to be 2-0 up. We did defend deep in the second half and had a bit of luck but then it was a great third goal. "We have thrown our bodies on the line when it counted. Everyone was so determined and we were on the front foot from the off. "We watched the video of the Chesterfield defeat and had a good talk about it, that we wanted to to get at them from the off. We showed effort and commitment and forced the opposition into errors. It will be a huge lift to everyone."
