    Reading 1-3 Sheffield United

    Just under 7,000 inside the Madejski Stadium to witness this one and I'm sure many of the home fans who bothered are probably wishing they hadn't.

    Sheffield United fans meanwhile look like they'll be seeing their side return to the play-off places.

    Peterborough 2-1 Walsall

    The Posh players have picked up brushes and spades to clear snow off the lines on the pitch in a bid to finish the game.

    There are nine minutes of normal time left. Will they finish the game at London Road?

    Peterborough 2-1 Walsall

    There is a lot of snow on the pitch at London Road, with visibility really poor. The ball and pitch markings are long gone underneath the white stuff.

    Billy Sharp (63 mins)

    Drama continues in Berkshire!

    Moments after possibly going level, Reading slip two goals behind again.

    Billy Sharp bags a second against his former loan club and there are inquests aplenty among the Reading defenders about who should have tracked his run on to a diagonal ball.

    This may be a night Jaap Stam will want to forget....

    Drama at the Madejski Stadium!

    Liam Kelly is fouled and bodychecked on the edge of the Sheffield United box and eventually the spot kicm is given.

    Leandro Bacuna steps up and Simon Moore, the replacement keeper, parries it behind to his right for a corner.

    Hull keeper Allan McGregor is in the referee's book and show a yellow card as he comes racing out to clear a ball but clatters into Kieffer Moore.

    Just the yellow card as it was almost right out on the touchline.

    Lifeline for Reading?

    John Taylor: Stam on the brink of the chop??? He's probably wondering what more can he do to get sacked.

    Back under way at the Madejski Stadium where Reading players may well have been handed the hairdryer treatment from their manager Jaap Stam.....

    Hull City 0-1 Barnsley

    No more goals in the second half at Hull, but three relatively quick bookings.

    Liam Lindsay sees yellow for the visitors, but Jarrod Bowen fails to deliver a decent cross from the resulting free-kick.

    Still just the one first-half goal separating the sides.

    That penalty miss might not matter after all for Peterborough!

    Marcus Maddison cuts inside and hits the post, with the ball coming to captain Jack Baldwin, who smashes a low shot into the net via a deflection.

    Have your say on this evening's action across the EFL but using #bbcefl on Twitter.

    Is Jaap Stam on the brink of the chop after that first 45 minutes?

    Is Steve Evans the right man to take charge at Peterborough? How do you feel Mansfield fans after his sudden resignation?
