    Southend have done all they can, beating strugglers Bury.

    However, they need a Bristol Rovers equaliser otherwise Millwall will take sixth place and the final play-off place. A nervous wait at Roots Hall awaits.

    Fleetwood 0-0 Port Vale

    They're into injury time in the game between Fleetwood and Port Vale.

    Anthony de Freitas blasts over from just inside the box for the visitors.

    Gillingham have drawn 0-0 at Northampton, so Vale must score in the dying embers of this game.

  5. FULL-TIME Northampton 0-0 Gillinghampublished at 13:53 British Summer Time 30 April 2017

    All over at Sixfields. All Gillingham eyes will be on Highbury Stadium.

    A Port Vale goal at Fleetwood would send the Gills down.

    Bolton 3-0 Peterborough

    Our focus has shifted to the play-off and relegation battles, as Bolton are cruising to promotion at the Macron Stadium.

    Peterborough had their chances to get back into the game at the end of the first half, but the Trotters have been dominant in the second period.

    Shaun Hutchinson

    Blimey. Millwall needed a hero and they got one, in the form of Shaun Hutchinson, who sends a glancing header into the net from a corner. 

    The 26-year-old centre-back only signed in June, but that goal could just secure him in the club's folklore. Drama.

    Fleetwood 0-0 Port Vale

    It's brilliant entertainment at Highbury now, but it must be unbearable for the Port Vale fans.

    Fleetwood's hopes of automatic promotion look to have been ended with Bolton leading 3-0 against Peterborough, but Vale need a goal in the closing stages to overhaul Gillingham and avoid relegation.

    Gillingham can make their position safe if they can steal a late winner at Northampton.

    Bristol Rovers 3-3 Millwall

    Now is the time for Millwall to show their mettle. The Lions were 2-0 up and cruising in the first half, but Billy Bodin has turned the tie - and their season - on its head. 

    They need a goal, otherwise Southend, who lead Bury 1-0, will pip them to the post. Time is ticking away.

  11. As it standspublished at 13:46 British Summer Time 30 April 2017

    So where do the teams stand as we enter the closing minutes of the League One season?

    • Bolton will be promoted to the Championship as they lead Peterborough 3-0.
    • Fleetwood will be forced to settle for a play-off place.
    • Southend are on course to pip Millwall and Rochdale for the final play-off spot.
    • Port Vale will be relegated unless they score at Fleetwood.

    Mark Wilkins: As a life long Lions fan, this is really "Squeaky Bum Time"! The whole season comes down to the next 20 minutes? Come on Wall.

    Billy Bodin

    The pressure has told at the Memorial Stadium. Bristol Rovers have been dominating the game in the second half and Billy Bodin has drawn them level. 

    The wide man's free-kick from far out beats Jordan Archer, who can only push the ball into the top corner. 

    Millwall now need to score, as Southend's 1-0 lead over Bury means they currently have sixth place in their grasp.

    Fleetwood 0-0 Port Vale

    Big chance for Port Vale!

    Chris Eagles goes through on goal, but his shot from eight yards out is saved by Fleetwood keeper Alex Cairns.

    Vale still heading down if the scoreline stays goalless.

    Bolton are heading up in style.

    Josh Vela crafts a bit of space through the middle, before sliding a pass with the outside of his right boot to Adam le Fondre.

    Luke McGee gets a foot to the striker's shot across goal, but can't keep it out.

    Billy Sharp put the league leaders ahead, but it didn't last long as Paul McGinn's first league goal for Chesterfield brought them level with a thumping low finish into the bottom corner. 

    The away side might not have enough to force an unlikely win, however, as Dan Gardner was shown a red card moments later for an incident off the ball.

    United are in pursuit of a win to finish their season on 100 points. Game on.

    Fleetwood 0-0 Port Vale

    Port Vale are battling to find the goal which could keep them in League One at Fleetwood, but they're having little luck so far.

    The visitors have had just one shot on target in the game, while Bobby Grant has just had an effort well saved for the hosts.

    David Wheater scoresImage source, Rex Features

    Nearly 3-0 at the Macron.

    Mark Beevers drives a powerful shot towards goal, but it's just close enough to Luke McGee for the Peterbrough keeper to be able to parry the ball clear.

    As it is, Jem Karacan's strike and this David Wheater header are more than enough to do the job of sealing promotion for Bolton.
