Wing-back Nesta Guinness-Walker hopes a point at Barnsley could be a turning point in Northampton Town's battle to avoid relegation from League One. The 2-2 draw ended a run of four successive defeats for the Cobblers, but they remain second from bottom of the table and have now gone nine games without a win. Guinness-Walker put them ahead in only the third minute at Oakwell, but his side fell 2-1 behind before Max Dyche headed an equaliser.

"As a group, we need a turning point and we'll definitely try and use this to swing a bit of momentum.
