Superb result. Times past we would have folded after they equalised but we are now on another level. Rammed it down the throat of the Cobblers fan who on their forum said halfway through the first half 'forgotten what rubbish League 2 was,just the keeper lumping it to a big man up front'
Elsewhere in the cup Jordan Stevens has just scored for Yeovil.

More importantly, a good amount of money for the club. Should just about cover the fines for those stupid flares the other night.

That is a proper proper win. A home draw to a non league club next please

We could see the Barrow effect here again, with another manager potentially getting sacked after a result at their ground.

Bet we don't probably get Pompey away

I fancied our chances after our win on Tuesday when I saw Cobblers had been stuffed 4-0. I see Wycombe are softening up Bradford C for us at half time too!

Another fantastic performance by the Bluebirds.Goals being scored by three different players,just what we have been waiting for.Now let,s go and do the same to Bradford next week.Onwards and upwards.Already got my match and bus ticket.

Great to read all all the praise being bestowed upon us on the Northampton Town Forum Really need to take a long hard look at themselves firstly.

Looks like Swindon players have picked up a few 'brown-envelopes' before their game with NL Aldershot.Now 0-7 down only 15 minutes into the second-half.

Big credit to the 168 there from Barrow. It’s strange really isn’t it,in non league for all those years,desperate to get a league club in the cup, and when we did,Bristol rovers for example, it was like a big day out, with hundreds travelling, now being an EFL club, we play this level of club ,week in week out.

A bit harsh there , a lot of people have mortgages and other commitments don't forget when we played Bristol Rovers etc it was a novelty I. Think our band of away supporters are brilliant and not many teams would take fans when the costs of where we come from are taken into consideration!

Anyway back to the match, what a brilliant win ,hopefully get a favourable draw next maybe a top league 1 side at home and get it televised for more revenue!

Honestly think when we learn how to consistently score goals there’s a team capable of promotion here. Class win made them look like the team the league below in their half empty stadium. They mustered a couple of dangerous attacks coming from mazeeds unnatural left wing back role and wild quickly identified that and brought on gotts and Whitfield and nullified anything they had. The second half was like a training game at times. Gotts, Spence came very close and what looked like a nailed on penalty on Garner wasn’t given. Credit to the whole team every man worked hard and played well, glad I didn’t bottle it this morning when I saw the weather! Let’s have the lowest ranked side at home and a big prem side away in the third!
