Notts County must be fancying their chances of going up as League Two Champions after Rochdale were thumped given their slender 1-0 win over Northampton Town at Sixfields. Davies scored the only goal of the game in the 47th minute to bring County to within 2 points of the leaders with one game in hand a vastly better goal difference.

Chesterfield left it late to salvage a point to keep themselves in the play-off places with a 2-2 draw with Dagenham & Redbridge at Saltergate. A Green brace in the 27th [pen] and 50th minutes gave the Daggers a 2-goal lead before the home side woke up and hit back through Demontagnac in the 69th and Conlon, who levelled in the 89th minute from the penalty spot. Chesterfield 6th, Dagenham & Redbridge 11th.
Bury seem to be slipping backwards as well at the moment as they went down to their 8th away defeat of the season, going down 5-2 against Cheltenham Town at Whaddon Road. Richards got the home side off the mark from the penalty spot in the 37th minute, which was added to by Thornhill just after the restart.

After a good few weeks of slipping down the table, the rot for Shrewsbury Town was stopped at local(ish) rivals Crewe Alexandra at Gresty Road as the Shrews ran away with a 3-0 win.

Only a freak set of results will now keep Darlington in the Football League for next season as they drew 0-0 with Accrington Stanley at The Arena. They are 21-points off safety, with a vastly inferior goal difference. Relegation could be confirmed on Tuesday evening when they visit Rochdale. Darlington 24th, Accrington Stanley 14th.

Macclesfield pretty much booked their place in League Two for next season as they saw off Barnet at Underhill with a 2-1 away win - their 5th of the season. Sinclair and Bell (54th and 89th minutes) just about put the game beyond doubt, but still had to sit out a nervy last few minutes when Upseon pulled one back in the 90th minute. Barnet 20th, Macclesfield 17th.
