Goalless at Sixfields

So after three games Northampton are just inside the top 10 with 4 points from a possible 9.

Giles Coke had the best of Town's efforts in a poor game that left boss Stuart Gray frustrated.

Gray said, "It was a frustrating afternoon but we have had to patch the team up a bit. We have far too many players in the treatment room at the moment and Danny Jackman, Colin Larkin and Leon Constantine all failed fitness tests and that limited our options for this game, particularly up front."

"We gave it a go but we just lacked that bit of quality in the final third of the pitch in the second half. We had a few balls flashing across the face of goal but no-one to get on the end of them and we were on our heels too many times, rather than anticipating where the ball would go."

"Millwall came here and made it difficult for us but I thought defensively we coped with their threat well enough and both keepers had reasonably quiet afternoons."

"I thought Joe Benjamin might give us a spark at the end but in the end the game just fizzled out."
