The 2022-23 campaign delivered a spectacular, hard-fought automatic promotion for Northampton Town, as The Cobblers, led by manager Jon Brady, dramatically clinched 3rd place in League Two on the final day. Leading the charge was the sensational veteran Sam Hoskins, whose career-best 22 goals proved decisive and saw him finish as the division's joint top goalscorer. It was a triumphant year built on resilience, a passionate atmosphere at Sixfields that saw the club record its highest average home attendance for 56 years, and it remains a defining chapter that secured their coveted return to League One.
