Results Round-Up


There were seven Conference games tonight, with leaders Wrexham holding top spot after coming from behind to beat Lincoln 2-1 at Sincil Bank. Mansfield kept pace in second place with a 2-0 win, their club record eighth win in succession, over Grimsby who are now seven points off the top but still have two games in hand. Forest Green closed the gap to fifth place with the Mariners' loss as they won 2-1 at Southport, and any vague hopes Luton had of making the play-offs are virtually gone after losing 2-1 at home to Hyde. Macclesfield's dreams are also slimming after a goalless home draw with Woking.

Down the bottom Hyde's win means Telford are now nine points short of safety, with Ebbsfleet six short after a 3-0 loss at Alfreton with debutant Jordan Rose amongst the scorers. Stockport won 2-0 at Barrow to ease their own worries and push the Bluebirds back into the bottom four.

In League Two, Wimbledon won 3-1 at play-off chasing Southend to move five points clear of danger. None of the remainder of the bottom seven won, with Torquay picking up a late draw at Dagenham and Plymouth drawing at home to Bradford. Accrington's 3-0 home loss to Fleetwood puts them bottom, goal difference away from Plymouth.
