Results Round Up

Thanks to postponements and results going the right way there was very little movement in the bottom four, and the Bulls now hold at least two matches in hand on all but Brighton with four points now the gap to safety.

Swindon's 2-2 draw with Cheltenham moves them up to 19th after Crewe lost 2-1 at home to Carlisle, with the winner scored by ex-Bull Joe Anyinsah. Peterboro beat Leyton Orient 3-2 to move themselves into the automatic spots after MK Dons' match at Northampton was called off midway due to a waterlogged pitch. Leicester drew 1-1 with Stockport to see their lead cut to 12 points, with Scunthorpe drawing 1-1 at home to Walsall. Millwall beat Southend 1-0 to move up to fifth, while Huddersfield are six points short of the play-offs after drawing 2-2 with Colchester. Hartlepool beat Tranmere 2-1 to ease their drop fears.

In League Two Brentford's 1-0 win at Grimsby puts them four points clear while the Mariners drop into the relegation spots after Bournemouth's 2-0 win over Aldershot. Chester's 2-0 loss to Wycombe means they are now just four points clear of relegation having played a game more. Shrewsbury drew 1-1 with Exeter thanks to a Grant Holt goal, with Moses Ashikodi being replaced by Nick Chadwick on the hour.

In the Conference Kidderminster's match with Woking was abandoned midway due to a waterlogged pitch, while Forest Green ground out a 1-1 draw at Stevenage. Oxford continued their late storm towards the play-offs with a 3-0 win at Eastbourne, but are six points adrift having played two games more than fifth placed Torquay.
