Sampson has a chance - Cardoza

Sampson, 40, is second on the all-time appearance list for the club after playing 449 times between 1993 and 2004 and is in temporary charge of first-team affairs following the dismissal of Stuart Gray on Tuesday morning.Cardoza said: "Absolutely he is in the running. He is desperate to be given the job. He's in the hot seat now and it is up to him to keep it."Personally I would love him to win some games and put me in a position where I have to give him the job because he is Northampton through and through."Within five hours of the announcement that Stuart had left I'd already had messages from 30 or 40 people about the job so it will take at least a week to bring those names together."Sammo will be in charge for the game at Notts County on Saturday and I want to see an improvement."
