ITS UPS AND DOWNS SATURDAY

Two games to go (44/46 played) in the Football League and all teams in Division One and Two are kicking off today at 3pm.
Crucial games are there to be won except that in League One Yeovil are down and their opponents Port Vale are probably safe, but could do with the points. Colchester looked doomed with Notts County and Leyton Orient in precarious positions. Crewe and Crawley are looking over their shoulders. Crewe's goal difference may be the decider. Of these, Leyton Orient and Notts County have home games.
League Two Tranmere and Cheltenham are sitting in the relegation positions, whilst Hartlepool, also with a dreadful goal difference, will be nervous today. The rest of the division is safe.
To replace those falling out of the Football League, Vanarama Conference teams Barnet at the top, Bristol Rovers, Grimsby, Eastleigh and Forest Green are vying for play off positions. They ALL play home games today at 5.15pm and against clubs with not much to aim for.

Let's celebrate Bristol City and Burton, who have been promoted from their divisions. The Championship is a dog fight, Blackpool sadly spiral out of control, but that is not surprising when the club started the season with a squad of 8, and Millwall and Wigan are on the cliff edge. Fascinating day today. Watford at the moment, beating Brighton, are a step nearer the Premier League.
