    Forest Green Rovers sit four points behind Grimsby in the table, but take the lead through a Kyle McAllister penalty - sending Cartwright the wrong way after Jones was fouled.

    Salford's Matt Smith, is now out on his own with 14 goals as top scorer in League Two and the whole EFL.

    Slightly against the run of play, Smith uses his height to head home a cross from the left to make level matters with Gillingham.

  2. HITS THE WOODWORKpublished at 15:38 Greenwich Mean Time 18 November 2023

    Stockport 0-0 Colchester

    Colchester almost in front.

    Jayden Fevrier does well down the right and sends a ball into a crowded box.

    Samson Tovide flicks a leg at the cross and his effort hits the bar.

    Swindon's Liam Kinsella brought down Abraham Odoh to be shown the first yellow card in North Yorkshire this afternoon, but still the away side lead Harrogate 1-0.

    Also a yellow for Gillingham where Max Clark has been booked, and Luke Garbutt of Salford has had to go off injured, with Conor McAleny coming on.

    Forest Green Rovers v Grimsby still seems to be the most attacking game in the division, but thus far is still goalless.

  4. 'That was the moment'published at 15:35 Greenwich Mean Time 18 November 2023

    Mansfield 1-0 Newport

    Andy White
    Ex-Mansfield striker on BBC Radio Nottingham

    That was the moment for Mansfied to really kick-on.

    It's been pretty comfortable so far, but a two goal cushion would have been really helpful.

  5. GREAT SAVE!published at 15:35 Greenwich Mean Time 18 November 2023

    Mansfield 1-0 Newport

    Rhys Oates steps up to take the spot-kick, but Nick Townsend makes a terrific save diving to his left!

    It was a decent height for the keeper, but full marks.

    GOAL: Blackpool 2-0 Shrewsburypublished at 15:34 Greenwich Mean Time 18 November 2023

    Jake Beesley (33 mins)

    A second goal as Blackpool take a firm grip on proceedings.

    CJ Hamilton gets away down the right and gets to the byline where he picks out Jake Beesley.

    The striker should finish with the goal gaping, but hits goalkeeper Marko Marosi, but the ball rebounds back on to the sliding striker and ends up in the net.

    That's not how it would be recommended at striker school, but all that counts is that the ball is in the net.

  8. 'Deserves a goal'published at 15:32 Greenwich Mean Time 18 November 2023

    Stockport 0-0 Colchester

    Neil Kelly
    BBC Essex's Colchester commentator

    The keeper's beaten but it hits the woodwork!

    For me, that backheel from Samson Tovide deserves a goal.

    Great improvisation.

    Mansfield 1-0 Newport

    Wave after wave of attacks from Mansfield against strugglers Newport.

    Another sweeping Stags' move finishes with Reed seeing his effort headed clear.

    A second goal and it could be a long way back for the Welsh side.

    The Stags have conceded just THREE goals this season.

    Stevenage 0-0 Lincoln

    Three points today and Stevenage will go fourth in League One.

    Who expected this when they were promoted from League Two in the summer?

    Their style is not to everyone's tastes, but boy, it's effective.

  11. Postpublished at 15:28 Greenwich Mean Time 18 November 2023

    Accrington 0-0 Wrexham

    Tommy Leigh drags a long-range shot just wide as Accrington have a crack.

    But it's the promotion chasers who are almost ahead when a terrible backpass near the halfway line puts Paul Mullins in.

    The striker is forced wide by goalkeeper Jon McCracken and the chance is gone.

    #EFL

    GIllingham 1-0 Salford. It's come from Huddersfield loanee Connor Mahoney in the 22nd minute with a left-footed shot from the edge of the area.

    That's only their 15th goal of the season - the lowest in the division.

    Sutton appealed for a penalty after Smith was bundled over, but referee says nothing doing.

    Harrogate have fallen behind to Swindon with Jake Young scoring his 13th of the season from range, curled into the top corner.

    Could Swindon win away for the first time since August?

    Stevenage 0-0 Lincoln

    It's a bodies on the line kind of day for Lincoln with a new head coach to impress.

    That's what TJ Eyoma has done, making a terrific block to stop Alex MacDonald from putting Stevenage in front.

    Stockport 0-0 Colchester

    Stockport are turning up the heat.

    Kyle Wootton's 20-yard piledriver is on target, but Owen Goodman is right behind it to make the save.

    Macauley Southam's short corner finds Odin Bailey who looks to whip it into the far top corner, but it's too close to the goalkeeper.

  15. 'Overload in midfield'published at 15:22 Greenwich Mean Time 18 November 2023

    Blackpool 1-0 Shrewsbury

    Gary Bowyer
    Former Blackpool manager on BBC Radio Lancashire

    Brilliant.

    The interchanging play between Sonny Carey and Jordan Rhodes before the incident was great.

    Blackpool are causing Shrewsbury problems with an overload in midfield.

  16. Postpublished at 15:21 Greenwich Mean Time 18 November 2023

    Accrington 0-0 Wrexham

    It's all Wrexham here in East Lancs.

    And they're so nearly in front as Elliott Lee leaps highest to get his head to the ball.

    But Jon McCracken does superbly to tip the effort past the post.

    A question of when?

    Jordan Rhodes from the spot. No problem whatsoever!

    A 10th goal of the season for the veteran striker as he sends Marko Marosi the wrong way.

  18. League Two latestpublished at 15:19 Greenwich Mean Time 18 November 2023

    #bbcefl

    A goal at Sutton for Nigel Adkins' side Tranmere as Ben Goodliffe puts the ball into his own net under pressure in the 17th minute in this key relegation battle.

    Sutton continue to be the leakiest defence in the league - that's now 38 goals conceded in League Two.

    Both sides on a poor run of late, but Harrogate have started positively at home to Swindon.

    Grimsby have had a couple of chances well blocked by last ditch Forest Green defending, the away side on top in the early stages at New Lawn.

  19. PENALTY TO BLACKPOOLpublished at 15:19 Greenwich Mean Time 18 November 2023

    Blackpool 0-0 Shrewsbury

    Karamoko Dembele, with his dancing feet, is tripped in the area. We don't need VAR to tell us that is a penalty.

  20. Postpublished at 15:18 Greenwich Mean Time 18 November 2023

    Mansfield 1-0 Newport

    Almost a second for the Stags.

    Davis Keillor-Dunn gets in a shot, but Nick Townsend makes a solid stop to deny him.
