Results Round Up

The gap to safety remains the same, but the Bulls have just seven matches left to find the wanted five wins, after Hartlepool and Leyton Orient were the only sides at the wrong end to get wins. Orient beat Cheltenham 1-0, while Brighton lost 2-0 at MK Dons. Northampton didn't play due to Scunthorpe's Wembley final tomorrow, and Carlisle drew 2-2 at Leicester. Crewe moved up a place after getting a goalless draw at Swindon, and Yeovil drew 0-0 at Stockport.

At the top Leicester need three wins at present to secure promotion after Peterboro beat Oldham 2-1, a result that leaves the Latics eight points short of the play-offs. Millwall beat Walsall 3-1 to stay third, and Leeds cemented a play-off spot with a 1-0 win at Colchester. Southend won 1-0 at Huddersfield to move within three points of the play-offs, but have played more games than their rivals.

In League Two Brentford's lead is cut to four points after only drawing 1-1 at Bradford. Exeter moved second with a 2-1 win over Dagenham. Down the bottom Luton didn't play, but Chester won for the first time in months - 2-1 at Notts County - to cut their gap to safety to a single point. Grimsby earned that point in drawing 1-1 at Shrewsbury, with Bournemouth four points clear of the drop after a resounding 4-0 win over Rochdale.

In the Conference Burton's wobble continues as they lost 4-0 at Crawley. They now need three wins to secure the title from their five remaining games after Cambridge lost 1-0 at home to Forest Green, and Histon lost 2-1 at Oxford. At the bottom Lewes beat Altrincham 2-0 for their first points in 19 matches - narrowly avoiding a record 19th straight defeat for a professional league record.
