    Bristol Rovers 0-1 Fleetwood

    Fleetwood are almost halfway to a very important three points at Bristol Rovers.

    The Gas threatened an equaliser shortly after Ronan Coughlan's opener, but substitute Luke Thomas was thwarted by visiting goalkeeper Jay Lynch.

  2. 'Exeter yet to threaten'published at 20:26 Greenwich Mean Time 6 February

    Exeter 0-1 Peterborough

    Graham Kirk

    Peterborough have certainly looked more dangerous out wide and in the box.

    Their centre-backs look particularly comfortable on the ball and Exeter haven't really threatened.

    It's a learning game for Sonny Cox.

    Stevenage 0-0 Reading

    Stevenage are still pressing for the opening goal against Reading and they've come close to taking the lead through Jamie Reid, who has hit the post with a close-range effort as half-time approaches.

    Port Vale 0-0 Leyton Orient

    Orient threaten again.

    Tom James is found in space 20 yards out.

    He rolls the ball across his body to open up the chance on his left foot.

    It's a crisp strike towards the bottom-right corner but Connor Ripley dives across to make a smart save.

    National League latest

    In one of the least "out there" predictions of the season, a team that we think we'll be seeing in the EFL next term is Chesterfield, who are leading 1-0 at Dagenham and Redbridge in the National League this evening.

    A win will take Paul Cook's side 22 points clear at the top of the table.

    TWENTY-TWO.

    Stevenage 0-0 Reading

    Mick Gooding

    Reading just need a spell of keeping the ball - not like that, though; they've just given the ball away.

    They've been defending, defending, defending.

    Stevenage goalkeeper Craig MacGillivray has found the conditions difficult for kicking during this half.

    Cooly slotted away by Harrison Burrows with his left boot into the bottom-left corner.

  8. PENALTY TO PETERBOROUGHpublished at 20:17 Greenwich Mean Time 6 February

    Exeter 0-0 Peterborough

    Posh have been on top and now they have a golden chance to take the lead as Ephron Mason-Clark is brought down just inside the penalty area down the left.

    Port Vale 0-0 Leyton Orient

    Ethan Chislett has curled a free-kick just wide in the home side's most hopeful moment so far.

    But Connor Ripley is called into action again at the other end to keep out efforts from Shaq Forde.

    First one he should keep out from a tight angle and then a better chance after a run down the right. Well beaten away.

  10. 'Orient turning up pressure'published at 20:14 Greenwich Mean Time 6 February

    Port Vale 0-0 Leyton Orient

    Adam Yates
    Former Vale defender on BBC Radio Stoke

    There are two or three tackles that Port Vale have pulled out of in the last few minutes.

    Ryan Loft gives the ball away with a sloppy pass and Shaq Forde is denied by a decent Connor Ripley save.

    Orient are just starting to turn up the pressure. The Port Vale defence is dropping deep and inviting pressure, which is worrying this early on.

    Stevenage 0-0 Reading

    Reading's Charlie Savage channels his dad Robbie circa 2002 - he has been booked against Stevenage for a challenge in midfield.

  12. Match abandonedpublished at 20:11 Greenwich Mean Time 6 February

    Cambridge 0-0 Bolton

    The groundstaff have tried their best at the Abbey Stadium but the amount of water that has fallen in the last 20 minutes has been overwhelming.

    The pitch is totally saturated and the match has been abandoned.

    Bolton had the chance to go second tonight but the weather has denied them.

  13. goal

    GOAL: Bristol Rovers 0-1 Fleetwoodpublished at 20:07 Greenwich Mean Time 6 February

    Ronan Coughlan (20 mins)

    First goal of the night goes to Fleetwood!

    Ronan Coughlan was a January signing from Irish side Waterford and he's scored for the second consecutive match.

    Coughlan gets on the end of a header down inside the box and, on the turn, shoots low into the corner of the net.

    Exeter have been outplayed in terms of what the teams have done in possession.

    Tom Carroll wastes a chance to send in a cross on the counter-attack following a Peterborough corner. Why did he hit it with the outside of his boot?

    He's better than that. He's been at some big clubs, has Tom.

    Exeter aren't testing Peterborough, although they have given them some things to think about.

  15. Postpublished at 20:06 Greenwich Mean Time 6 February

    Exeter 0-0 Peterborough

    Joel Randall has the ball in the net for the visitors - but the offside flag has gone up to save Exeter.

    Earlier, Randall tried his luck from a tight angle and forced Viljami Sinisalo into a sharp near-post save for Exeter.

    Cambridge 0-0 Bolton - match on hold

    I don't want to be doom-laden about this but the weather has deteriorated massively since the game started.

    It's not looking good at all here. There are puddles on the pitch.

    The main reason why I don't think the game will resume is because it isn't getting any better.

    Stevenage 0-0 Reading

    Stevenage definitely on top in the early stages at Lamex Stadium.

    Jake Forster-Caskey and Dan Sweeney have both had chances for the hosts, who will climb to fifth if they win against lowly Reading.

  18. Postpublished at 20:00 Greenwich Mean Time 6 February

    Port Vale 0-0 Leyton Orient

    First effort of the night goes to the visitors as Theo Archibald finds space just outside the penalty area and lets fly with a shot.

    Comfortable enough for Connor Ripley in the Vale goal.

    An early warning for the managerless hosts.

    Bristol Rovers 0-0 Fleetwood

    The weather is no better at Bristol Rovers' Memorial Stadium, really. The rain is lashing down and puddles are forming on the touchline areas.

    Cambridge 0-0 Bolton - match on hold

    So the game between Cambridge and Bolton is on hold and we await further news about whether the match will resume.

    Before kick-off, we had the strange sight of a fairly large hole being filled by two ground staff.

    "Where did that hole come from? We're looking into it..."

    Bad jokes aside, the prospect of any further play looks fairly remote unless the persistent rain relents.
