    The cat meets the pigeons.

    Keane Lewis-Potter gives the away side the lead with an effort that Joe Lumley in the home goal should probably do better with.

    The other teams pushing for the play-off places will be pleased to see this scoreline.

    Nottingham Forest 1-0 Birmingham

    Neil Etheridge is taken from the field by the medical staff.

    The Birmingham goalkeeper, who had been excellent throughout at the City Ground, is given a standing ovation from the spectators in the stadium.

    His Blues team-mates also clap him off. There is serious concern for him after what appears to be a head knock.

    Birmingham City goalkeeper Neil Etheridge is in some trouble here.

    There is a lengthy stoppage in play as the medics rush on to attend to the shot-stopper after his coming together with Djed Spence.

    It was a 50-50 ball just outside the area, but Etheridge has come off pretty bad.

    Not such good news for Barnsley...

    Oliver Burke scores his first goal for Millwall and his first for anyone since scoring for Sheffield United at Manchester United in January 2021.

    He bundles in from close range and it's looking like Barnsley's hopes of taking anything today are over.

  20. 'Forest Green have been fantastic'published at 16:18 British Summer Time 9 April 2022

    Forest Green 1-0 Hartlepool

    Calvin Andrew
    Ex-Rochdale, Mansfield and Port Vale forward on Squad Goals

    They had a blip. They're in their right to the season they've had, they've been fantastic. They would have been a bit shaky because every season they seem to fall off around this time but it's good to see them get back on that winning train.
