Newport manager John Sheridan told 91热爆 Radio Wales: "The players know their jobs and what they're doing, and they're just giving me 100% each game, you could see that.
"A couple of weeks ago they probably would have lost that game after going 2-0 down.
"The goals are our fault, it's not good play from Northampton it's just silly errors... but I'd rather talk about the response I got from them."
Northampton Town manager Chris Wilder speaks to 91热爆 Radio Northampton following the 2-2 draw with Newport County.
Northampton boss Chris Wilder tells 91热爆 Radio Northampton:
"I'm proud of the players the supporters after what has gone on this week.
"It was a cagey game that could have gone either way. The main event is the survival of the football club. We hope that the right decision is made."
