  1. 'More of the same please'published at 15:58 British Summer Time 5 April

    HT: Birmingham 1-1 Barnsley

    Tom Gayle
    Final Score at St Andrews @ Knighthead Park

    I’m not sure we would have seen this type of game had Barnsley not been reduced to 10 men early on.

    Credit to Conor Hourihane’s tactics for the entertainment value, they’ve played like a side with nothing to lose. A constant threat on the counter, and could have taken the lead if not for better finishing from Adam Phillips and Stephen Humphrys.

    Groans from the home support reflected their nerves before Jay Stansfield settled them from the spot.

    Really poor Birmingham defending for the equaliser. Former Blues defender Marc Robert’s long throw wasn’t dealt with, and Davis Keillor-Dunn’s header gave the visitors a deserved equaliser.

    More of the same in the second half please.

  2. Wrexham pressure pays off against brave Burtonpublished at 15:58 British Summer Time 5 April

    FT: Wrexham 3-0 Burton

    Sanny Rudravajhala
    BBC Radio 5 Live at Stok Cae Ras

    Charlie Webster’s late lunge early on meant it was backs-to-the-wall for Burton

    The League One strugglers were brave for a long time but couldn’t hold back the tide.

    Steven Fletcher from the spot, and cool finishes from Sam Smith and Jack Marriott, all in the second half, saw a perfect Hollywood smile from part-owner Ryan Reynolds in the stands.

    They might need Van Wilder Party Liason by May. Wrexham are, for now, six clear in the automatic promotion places but what I would say, is they’ll need more than relentless ball-recycling and crossing the Championship.

    Burton remain in the relegation mire, but there was plenty of spirit today to show they can match it with the leading teams… but time is running out.

  5. HALF-TIMEpublished at 15:53 British Summer Time 5 April

    Birmingham 1-1 Barnsley

    An excellent, action-packed first half comes to an end at St Andrew's.

    Birmingham's march to the League One title appeared to have been made that bit easier when Mael de Gevigney was sent off for Barnsley after three minutes for bringing down Keshi Anderson as the last man.

    Jay Stansfield then put Blues ahead from the spot in the 33rd minute after Kieran Flavell brought down Anderson in the area.

    But the Tykes have battled well and equalised through Davis Keillor-Dunn just moments after going behind.

  6. HALF-TIMEpublished at 15:50 British Summer Time 5 April

    Charlton 0-1 Lincoln

    Two shots for Lincoln and one goal.

    They lead Charlton at the break, who have work to do if they're to strengthen their grip on a play-off spot and close the gap to Wycombe in second.

  7. Postpublished at 15:49 British Summer Time 5 April

    Birmingham 1-1 Barnsley

    Christoph Klarer has space to drive into for Birmingham and he obliges before rifling an effort over the bar from the edge of the box.

  8. HALF-TIMEpublished at 15:48 British Summer Time 5 April

    Bolton 0-0 Bristol Rovers

    A slow start at the Toughsheet.

    But with one side chasing a chance at promotion and the other battling to stay away from relegation, three points must sound better than one.

  9. HALF-TIMEpublished at 15:48 British Summer Time 5 April

    Bradford 1-0 Crewe

    Three minutes of added time did not allow Crewe back into this one.

    They now have three minutes to rue that penalty miss.

    Bradford scoring after 12 seconds through Bobby Pointon was a shock, and since then the Railway men have come back into it, but still trail at the break.

  10. INJURY TIMEpublished at 15:47 British Summer Time 5 April

    Charlton 0-1 Lincoln

    Three minutes of stoppage time to play at The Valley at the end of the first half.

  11. 'Might just be one of those days for Crewe'published at 15:46 British Summer Time 5 April

    Bradford 1-0 Crewe

    Graham McGarry
    Crewe commentator for BBC Radio Stoke

    Crewe had been given a life line! There is a real atmosphere here...

    They will feel disappointed to concede a goal after the 13 seconds and then they go and miss a penalty - it might just be one of those days.

  12. INJURY TIMEpublished at 15:46 British Summer Time 5 April

    Birmingham 1-1 Barnsley

    There will be SEVEN minutes added on at the end of this first half. Don't see that too often.

  13. HITS THE WOODWORKpublished at 15:41 British Summer Time 5 April

    Bolton 0-0 Bristol Rovers

    Bolton's Aaron Morley delivers a curling corner and it's a Gas defender who it finds first.

    But the connection almost goes wrong when it clatters off the woodwork rather than sail over the goal.

    Fortunately for them, the visitors are able to clear the follow up.

  14. MISSED PENALTYpublished at 15:41 British Summer Time 5 April

    Bradford 1-0 Crewe

    What a save!

    Sam Walker dives the right way to deny Ryan Cooney from the spot.

    He has not had a great day, the first of only two players booked (both for Crewe) and now a missed massive opportunity from the spot.

  15. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 15:41 British Summer Time 5 April

    Birmingham 1-1 Barnsley

    Willum Willumsson has picked up a knock for Birmingham and cannot continue. On comes Alfie May to replace the Icelandic midfielder.

  16. CREWE PENALTYpublished at 15:38 British Summer Time 5 April

    Bradford 1-0 Crewe

    Conceded by Aden Baldwin of Bradford with a handball in the penalty area.

  17. goal

    GOAL: Birmingham 1-1 Barnsleypublished at 15:36 British Summer Time 5 April

    Davis Keillor-Dunn (35 mins)

    An instant response by the 10 men of Barnsley!

    Marc Roberts sends in a long throw and it's flicked on by Corey O'Keeffe towards the back post for Davis Keillor-Dunn who pounces to turn it home.

    What a game this is at St Andrew's.

  18. League Two latestpublished at 15:36 British Summer Time 5 April

    Bobby Kamwa has given Newport a second soon after their first at Brunton Park, but then Georgie Kelly has brought Carlisle back into this at 1-2.

    Andrew Dallas has drawn Morecambe level with Grimsby at 1-1.

    Plenty of goals in some games whilst others are still just getting their eye in in this April sunshine made for summer sports, not players wearing long studs.

  19. YELLOW CARDpublished at 15:34 British Summer Time 5 April

    Bradford 1-0 Crewe

    Max Conway arrives late to a tackle, lunging in on Alex Pattinson and he's booked.

    There is a delay for this injury as home fans and players were baying for blood, deeming this worthy of red not yellow.

    He is ok to continue though.

  20. YELLOW CARDpublished at 15:34 British Summer Time 5 April

    Bolton 0-0 Bristol Rovers

    Gas midfielder Matt Butcher picks up the first warning of today's affair with a shirt pull on Josh Dacres-Cogley.

    It's cagey this one, with neither side getting a look in on either end of the pitch.
