Nathan Tyson's second-half penalty earned 10-man Nottingham Forest their first win in five games.
Brett Ormerod gave Forest the lead when he finished off a move involving Chris Cohen and Julian Bennett.
James Perch was shown a straight red for a challenge on Poul Hubertz before the Cobblers player equalised with a great overhead kick.
But Tyson grabbed the winner from the penalty spot after he was fouled by Mark Bunn.
