Walsall were in the play-off spots during the half-time break, but they are back out of them now.
Colchester's Cameron McGeehan has made it 1-1 against the Saddlers in Essex.
That means Wimbledon are back into the play-off positions, despite losing 1-0 at home to Newport, while Colchester are now out of the bottom two on goal difference.
Elsewhere, Paul Glatzel has one back for Swindon and it is now 2-1 to Doncaster at the County Ground.

Chesterfield made to wait for promotion by Oldham

Well,
that was a fun game of football and not in the script at all if you’re a
Chesterfield fan.
If
you’ve been an away fan when James Norwood is on one then you’ll know exactly
what I’m talking about when I say he was at the centre of nearly everything for the Latics in a game that’ll raise hopes of an EFL return of their own.
The
ex-Barnsley and Ipswich man put Oldham ahead from the spot after ex-Spireite
Andrew Dallas was brought down and he should have got a couple more before Dan Gardner
was played through to make it 2-0.
But
Paul Cook’s men responded four minutes later when Bailey Hobson, on his first
start, found himself free to half the deficit inside the area. That got the
1,700 fans on their feet and singing, “champions elect, ole, ole, ole!” but the
champers will stay on ice for now.
That’s
despite Joe Quigley’s cool second-half spot-kick conversion levelling
proceedings and sub Armando Dobra hitting the bar minutes earlier.
A
trip to The Shay and FC Halifax Town on Wednesday is their next chance but come
on, with 92 points and Barnet needing to win all their games to overtake them,
there’s a reason the away stand wasn’t too worried today.
Post update
One team that looks destined to be promoted to League Two next season are runaway National League leaders Chesterfield.
They could have sealed promotion as early as today - which tells you how far ahead they are - but Oldham have promotion hopes of their own and held the leaders to a 2-2 draw earlier.

What a half of football at Stadium MK!
They leapfrog Crewe into fourth as things stand.
Matthew Dennis with a brace and Stephen Wearne with the goals for the home side.
Elliott Nevitt scored the goal for Crewe to set it up nicely for what could be a lively second half.
HALF-TIME
Peterborough 0-0 Portsmouth

Pompey came close to breaking the deadlock with Conor Shaughnessy and Colby Bishop having efforts blocked in a scramble from a corner just before the break while Ephron Mason-Clark thumped the crossbar for the hosts earlier on.
All to play for after the turnaround.

Reading 2-0 Cambridge
Sam Smith's close range finish on 11 minutes, his fifth goal in as many games, 11th of the season and against his former club, was followed by Femi Azeez's blistering solo goal on the stroke of half-time.
The Us had been pushing for a leveller late in the half so the half-time cuppas will certainly be supped more comfortably by the home faithful now.
HALF-TIME
Forest Green 0-1 Sutton
Josh Coley with the only goal in this game at the foot of League Two.
Bottom of the table Sutton in charge going into the break.
HALF-TIME

Nightmare half for Bradford.
A cracking one for Mansfield.
GOAL: Reading 2-0 Cambridge
Femi Azeez (45+2 mins)
On the stroke of half-time, a huge goal.
Femi Azeez pounces on a bouncing ball on the halfway line and races into green space, takes a couple of touches to bring the ball under his spell and then fires low past the keeper at the near post for his seventh goal of the season.
A blistering run and what a time to double their lead.
