Tony Bedeau was the danger man for Torquay with him being the only one to cause any trouble for the Cobblers. 

Colin Calderwood was booed for taking off McGleish but made his feelings known to the crowd when Taylor scored just 3 minutes later.  The Cobblers moved into second place which became the highest position in any league since 1990.
