Aidy Boothroyd confident of Northampton Town progress

Northampton Town manager Aidy Boothroyd has insisted that his side has a "good chance" in their League Two playoff semi-final with Cheltenham Town following their first-leg win.

Roy O'Donovan netted the only goal of the game on Thursday to give the Cobblers a narrow victory at Sixfields Stadium.

"I thought we played very well tonight," Boothroyd told Sky Sports News. "The only disappointment for me is that we didn't score more goals, but it is only half time and we know these are a good side.

"I said all along it's going to be difficult but we've given ourselves a good chance."

Northampton make the trip to Whaddon Road for the return leg on Sunday.
