Northampton fail in hat-trick bid

The Cobblers were beaten 2-1 by Port Vale on Saturday Aidy Boothroyd sent his side out looking for a third successive victory but goals in each half from McCombe and Rigg made it an uphill task. Bayo Akinfenwa gave the 5,803 crowd hope with a goal ten minutes from time but a comeback proved beyond the Cobblers, who remain in the relegation zone. Reaction to follow on Cobblers Mad.
