Sampson thrown down the gauntlet
The Cobblers are doing all the talking in League Two after they entered the play-off zone for the first time this term with a 2-0 victory over bottom side Darlington. A run of only two defeats in the last 17 games have raised hopes of an immediate return to League One.[LNB]Sampson, who was appointed in September, is keeping his cards close to his chest, but said: "We have got the momentum at present after four wins on the trot. When I took over as manager I was aiming for a top-half finish and now we have 10 games left to try to take it even further."[LNB]He continued: "I am not one of those people who gets ahead of himself and we have Morecambe here next Saturday to try to take it a step further. We will just try to win as many games as we can. It is good to keep another clean sheet.[LNB]"We still have to play a lot of the sides above us but we are clear of midweek fixtures apart from Easter and it means we can give the players a break, which is important at this time of the season.[LNB]"We are not always out on a football pitch. Sometimes we go swimming or just try to keep things fresh."[LNB][LNB]
