    Stockport and Wrexham are both heading to League One after wins over Morecambe (2-0) and Forest Green (6-0) respectively sealed them automatic promotion. Let the celebrations begin.

    Mansfield Town are almost certain to claim the third automatic slot after their second-half flurry earned them a 4-1 win over closest rivals MK Dons, who now trail Mansfield by five points with only two games left.

    One more point would realistically do it for Nigel Clough's side, who have a vastly superior goal difference to MK, who look bound for the play-offs.

    Chasers Crewe, Barrow and Crawley all dropped points, leaving the door ajar for Doncaster and Gillingham to possibly force their way into the a play-off spot with a late push.

  3. Fleetwood fight on and Burton earn timely winpublished at 17:37 British Summer Time 13 April

    Fleetwood live to fight another day after a 2-0 win over Northampton, with both goals coming in the opening half-hour. They could have been relegated today had they lost and other results went against them.

    Burton picked a good time to win for the first time in 11 games as they beat Stevenage 2-1.

    More good news for Albion is that relegation rivals Cheltenham and Port Vale both suffered home losses. Vale's defeat being made worse by the fact they were 2-0 up until almost the hour mark, only to lose 4-2 to Exeter.

    Shrewsbury also lost but are six points clear of danger and should be safe, while its the same story for Cambridge who picked up a point at home to Charlton.

  4. Pompey promotion celebrations on holdpublished at 17:28 British Summer Time 13 April

    Table of top 10 in League One

    Leaders Portsmouth have to wait for another day to seal their promotion to the Championship after a hard-fought 1-1 draw with Bolton.

    The Trotters slip four points behind Derby, who enjoyed a convincing 3-0 win at home to Leyton Orient, but do have a game in hand to push themselves closer to the Rams.

    It was triumph to disaster for Peterborough. A week on from their EFL Trophy win at Wembley they were hammered 5-0 by Oxford to all but end their automatic promotion hopes.

    Oxford's win gave their goal difference a power of good and consolidated sixth.

    Blackpool's win moves them above Lincoln who lost 2-1 to Wigan and Stevenage's play-off hopes are pretty much over after defeat against Burton.

    • Doncaster 4-0 Accrington: Accrington are absolutely thumped away to Doncaster, who climb to eighth in the league, one point below the play-off spots.
    • Harrogate 2-2 Sutton: The away side looked set to overcome their defeat against Stockport last week when they took the lead at the end of the first half. But they had to come from behind in the end, settling for a single point.
    • Gillingham 3-0 Barrow: Play-off chasers Gillingham put themselves within four points of 10-man Barrow with a convincing win.

    MK Dons 1-4 Mansfield

    Huge win for Mansfield who look to have pretty much secured automatic promotion out of League Two.

    MK Dons totally collapsed in the game's final 10 minutes and their boss Mike Williamson will almost certainly turn his attention to the playoffs.

    So close to a Bolton winner!

    A ball is drilled across the box and Dion Charles gets a touch but can only divert it onto the post and it rolls away from danger.

    Oxford 4-0 Peterborough

    Oxford have been cruising for a long time in this one and have had several chances to extend their lead.

    Greg Leigh has just struck the frame of the goal.

    The Yellows are going to consolidate that sixth spot in the play-offs, while this result probably ends Peterborough's automatic promotion hopes.
