Just off the graphic, Reading are 16th on 37 points - five points off the top six.

Those play-off places really are anyone's if they can build a run in the final three months of the season.

• Leaders Leyton Orient were beaten at Tranmere and remain two points ahead of cup-tied Stevenage having played two games more.
• Northampton closed within six points of the second-placed side with a 2-0 win at Barrow.
• Carlisle remain a point behind the Cobblers in fourth after beating bottom side Rochdale.
• Salford stay fifth after they were beaten 3-2 at Crawley who are up to 20th, and sixth-placed Swindon fought back to draw with lowly Gillingham who stayed second-bottom.
• Mansfield climbed to seventh as they eased past mid-table Doncaster, while AFC Wimbledon edged past Stockport.
• Harrogate and Hartlepool remain just above the bottom two after home defeats to Sutton and Colchester respectively.

• Two stoppage-time goals consigned Forest Green to a dramatic 2-1 defeat at Shrewsbury in Duncan Ferguson’s first match in charge and the Greens remain bottom.
• Peterborough have moved up to seventh and within two points of the play-offs as Jonson Clarke-Harris’ first-half brace secured a 2-1 win over Portsmouth.
• Morecambe moved two points clear of the relegation places after thrashing Bristol Rovers 5-1 thanks to four second-half goals, and fellow strugglers Burton beat Oxford to climb a place to 22nd.
• Exeter are up to 10th after Jevani Brown’s double gave them a 2-0 win at MK Dons.
• Lincoln played out a goalless draw at home to second-bottom Cambridge, as did Cheltenham against Port Vale.

That's all our EFL games done for the day.

Perhaps no fairytale start for Duncan Ferguson.

Rekeil Pike draws Shrewsbury level with Big Dunc's Forest Green in the fourth minute of stoppage-time.

And then nine minutes into stoppage-time, heartbreak as Ryan Bowman snatches an incredible winner for the Shrews.

Welcome to management!

The Boro bandwagon hit a little hump last weekend at Sunderland but it's rolling again now.

Michael Carrick's side move up to third in the Championship, above today's opponents Watford.

Chuba Akpom and Marcus Forss were the scorers.

Gustavo Hamer and Kasey Palmer scored second-half goals for Coventry to earn their first win of 2023.

Huddersfield remain in the relegation zone.

Portsmouth have the ball in the net and this time it counts.

Nathan Thompson's own goal has pulled them back to 2-1 at Peterborough, but can they find a late leveller?

It goes from bad worse to Bristol Rovers who have gone 5-1 down at Morecambe.

Matty Godden, on his first appearance for Coventry since October, goes close to a third goal but Huddersfield goalkeeper Nicholas Bilokapic denies him.

Leaders Leyton Orient's hope of pulling further clear of cup-tied Stevenage have taken a blow as they have fallen behind at Tranmere through an Omar Beckles own goal.

It's all happening at the County Ground where Charlie Austin's second has pulled Swindon level at 3-3 with Gillingham, having trailed 3-1.

But moments later, the Robins are down to 10 men after Saidou Khan is shown his second yellow card of the afternoon. Tasty.

We'd love to be able to tell you that we're in for some late drama in the Championship.

We'll level with you. Looking unlikely.

Michael Carrick's Middlesbrough are about to go third in the Championship, providing they don't collapse in the closing minutes - and that doesn't look like happening right now.

They'll be 12 points behind second-placed Sheffield United and while a push for the top two might be beyond them, if they keep this form up they're sure to be one of the main contenders for play-off glory in May.

Portsmouth boss John Mousinho is cutting a frustrated figure.

Reeco Hackett-Fairchild looks to have halved the deficit at Peterborough, but it's disallowed after a lengthy discussion with the linesman.

Posh remain 2-0 up.

Elsewhere, Forest Green are still holding on to that 1-0 lead in Duncan Ferguson's first game in charge.

The scoreline represents another disappointing day for QPR but one positive is the return of midfielder Stefan Johansen, who is off the bench for the closing stages at Hull.

Johansen hasn't featured since October because of a heel injury.

Chances for all three trailing sides in the Championship since the last update, but at the moment it looks like being three home wins with 10-15 minutes remaining in those games.

Middlesbrough are pushing for a third goal against Watford, with handball appeals for a penalty waved away and Paddy McNair going close.
