Northampton boss Jon Brady admitted he was gutted to concede so late in Tuesday’s 2-2 draw with Leyton Orient.
The Cobblers turned the contest around after Rob Hunt’s early goal as Sam Hoskins scored twice in four second-half minutes, but Kieron Bowie then saw red for an apparent headbutt.
Orient utterly dominated the final half-hour but they were made to wait until
Chances came and went but eventually they found a way through as Shaq Forde’s 96th minute equaliser salvaged a point.
“We stepped on the gas in the second half, turned it around and we find ourselves 2-1 and from there I thought we would go on and win the game and maybe score more goals.
“Even in the first half, I felt we were the team having all of the entries into the final third. Yes, they had a few moments and there was a 10-minute period where they had a spell.
“It’s a disappointing goal to concede but then after that we were in the ascendancy and we pointed out a few technical things that we needed to improve at half-time and we did that.
