tired football league Lins dig deep for that final kick for home. This

:00:11.:00:21.
:00:21.:00:27.

is late kick-off. These rather fans still needed to

:00:27.:00:34.

Devon. By Kilis.We are with Barnsley as they scrap for their

:00:34.:00:39.

championship lives. Some good goals and bad goals. We have all the

:00:39.:00:49.

goals. Hello again. With me tonight are two

:00:49.:00:58.

regulars who really set in the same studio together. John, meet Dean.

:00:58.:01:06.

You can contact us on our Twitter account. Before we see the action,

:01:06.:01:11.

can either of you ever remember a season at this stage where it is

:01:11.:01:21.
:01:21.:01:22.

still so tight and so much up for grabs? We were just saying before

:01:22.:01:31.

that it is amazing. They are all playing against each other. I cannot

:01:31.:01:36.

remember all three divisions, there are teams going for promotion and

:01:36.:01:43.

relegation. The day I take fashion tips from either of you I am giving

:01:43.:01:51.

up completely. The fixture that leaps out - Plymouth away is a much

:01:51.:01:55.

easier proposition when your team is within touching distance of

:01:55.:02:01.

promotion. Rotherham fans but they would do it in style, flying down to

:02:01.:02:07.

the -- English Riviera but it did not work out that way. But that is

:02:07.:02:15.

all history now. It was on July 15 88 that France's

:02:15.:02:21.

Street and the English forces left these shores to see off the Spanish

:02:21.:02:28.

Armada. The Mayflower took off from here as well for the New World.

:02:29.:02:33.

Since the 20th century it is not a problem reading Plymouth but getting

:02:33.:02:38.

here in the first place for the football fan. It is sexy and in

:02:38.:02:44.

Rotherham and locals thought they would get a lion. Dash-mac 6am. The

:02:44.:02:49.

baht a ticket to fly down in style but the man ran off with the cash.

:02:49.:02:56.

They will get to the game. Buses have been put on and complimentary

:02:56.:03:01.

baking butties have been put on Israel. If we had been flying, it

:03:01.:03:06.

would have been a great party day. We would have enjoyed the journey

:03:06.:03:15.

but now we can drive there. begins an 18 hour odyssey. The team

:03:15.:03:20.

stayed over to arrive fresh for the battle ahead. Buoyed by the support

:03:20.:03:30.
:03:30.:03:32.

already at the other end. would've been a lot nicer to fly but

:03:32.:03:37.

we have made it. We have had a good trip and everybody is happy and

:03:37.:03:42.

hopefully we will get the win and secure promotion follows today.

:03:42.:03:52.
:03:52.:04:10.

Dash-mac for us today. The second half saw the Miller's

:04:10.:04:13.

play towards their own fans and Alex Revel came within a whisper of the

:04:13.:04:23.
:04:23.:04:39.

post. But the breakthrough came 15 minutes from time. Delight and huge

:04:39.:04:49.
:04:49.:05:22.

difference to a six hour coach trip. We are going up. Fabulous, worth all

:05:22.:05:32.
:05:32.:05:35.

the money he ripped us off for. Three points have been won, money

:05:35.:05:41.

has been lost and a long day draws to a close. A good day in the end

:05:41.:05:46.

for Rotherham. We'll talk Rotherham in a moment, but first here's the

:05:46.:05:49.

action from our other three sides in League Two. And Paul Burland starts

:05:49.:05:57.

with Bradford who are targeting to return to Wembley in May. Bradford

:05:57.:06:02.

city's late promotion - continues. They beat Burton on Saturday thanks

:06:02.:06:07.

to a gratuitous James Hanson: The stroke of half-time. With extra

:06:07.:06:13.

losing again, Bradford are definitely in the play-offs. But

:06:13.:06:19.

Chesterfield will just miss out. They went in front. Two tremendous

:06:19.:06:23.

efforts either side of the break from Mark Richards stretch the

:06:23.:06:31.

advantaged. Ultimately last Tuesday's defeat has proved fatal to

:06:31.:06:36.

their hopes this year. Another win for your work, this time against

:06:36.:06:40.

Southend but they are still not safe. Adam Reach pick one up. They

:06:40.:06:46.

were pegged back 20 minutes later, comedy defending a learning Ryan

:06:46.:06:54.

Leonard to score. Defending was not much better at the other end. Your

:06:54.:07:02.

will still be playing league football next year. The draw against

:07:02.:07:09.

Aldershot will almost certainly be enough. Bradford have made the

:07:09.:07:13.

play-offs and their hopes remain alive. Chesterfield missed out so it

:07:13.:07:17.

is league two for them next year. York city know that a draw at

:07:17.:07:22.

Dagenham next year -- next week will Dagenham next year -- next week will

:07:22.:07:27.

keep them in the football league. A worthwhile trip for the Rotherham

:07:27.:07:33.

A worthwhile trip for the Rotherham fans. The supporters turned out in

:07:33.:07:39.

numbers. It is a long trip. Certainly, Rotherham are no just

:07:39.:07:47.

needing one point from Aldershot. It looks automatic. It has been a

:07:47.:07:53.

brilliant year for them. They have moved to the new ground and that has

:07:53.:07:57.

been a catalyst. Just one point required against the bottom team

:07:58.:08:02.

next week. We all thought they had blown it a few weeks ago when they

:08:02.:08:07.

had a wobble. Great win at Bradford on Tuesday night. To go down there

:08:07.:08:12.

and get three points is great. They deserve it but they cannot take it

:08:12.:08:18.

for granted. They have to keep their feet on the ground on Saturday. At

:08:18.:08:23.

this stage in the season, you cannot wait for Saturday. The tension is

:08:23.:08:27.

building up. Promotion was the brief of the manager and he is almost

:08:27.:08:35.

there. When he got the job, that was the discussion. They were favourites

:08:35.:08:40.

at the start of the season anyway. It was promotion or nothing really.

:08:40.:08:48.

Yes. Steve is not everyone's cup of tea but he gets results and gets the

:08:48.:08:58.
:08:58.:08:58.

job done. He will be delighted. He is a colourful character. He took a

:08:58.:09:06.

gamble as well. A few people thought his appointment at Rotherham was a

:09:06.:09:11.

strange one but he has done well. saw what the fans had to go through

:09:11.:09:14.

to get down there and they raise some money as well, all's well that

:09:14.:09:22.

ends well. They will forget all about that, as long as their team

:09:22.:09:27.

gets results on the day and gets promotion. And they raise some money

:09:27.:09:36.

for charity as well. Knowing that Aldershot was the last game of the

:09:36.:09:42.

season. What a fantastic opportunity. Bradford will

:09:42.:09:51.

definitely have another shot at Wembley. Same as Rotherham, we did

:09:51.:09:53.

not think they would get there. We certainly did not then Bradford city

:09:53.:09:56.

would get there. We have seen some goals this weekend. Shocking

:09:56.:10:03.

defending there. You can see five-year -- five weeks ago they be

:10:03.:10:10.

got a hammering at Exeter. The last eight games they have done superbly.

:10:10.:10:17.

I think they have won five. They are hitting form. Just one reservation

:10:17.:10:22.

about Kyle Reid, he is an influential player. The pitch is not

:10:22.:10:28.

great. Looks like they will be at home in the first leg of the

:10:28.:10:36.

play-offs. Chesterfield will be disappointed with this season.

:10:36.:10:44.

have fallen short. They did have some cracking goals. Mark Richards

:10:44.:10:49.

is a good player. I like him at that level. It is a shame they have not

:10:49.:10:57.

stepped up. A lifeline for your city as well. It is a shame, they were

:10:58.:11:02.

eight minutes away from survival yesterday and Wimbledon scored. They

:11:02.:11:08.

have got to get a point at Dagenham this weekends. They will go down

:11:08.:11:12.

there with confidence. They are on a good run, they have won three and

:11:12.:11:18.

drawn two in the last five. A big result, as we saw there. Still to

:11:18.:11:22.

come. The Tigers creep closer to the premier league. And two Spikey

:11:22.:11:32.
:11:32.:11:36.

spirites go Man On. It has been a difficult as exciting 12 months for

:11:36.:11:41.

Barnsley fans. A change of manager has breathed fresh life into the

:11:41.:11:44.

South Yorkshire side. With the season heading to the climax, there

:11:44.:11:54.
:11:54.:11:54.

are genuine reasons to believe they can avoid the drop. Barnsley's

:11:54.:11:59.

season has been a game of two halves, slumped at the bottom of the

:11:59.:12:04.

championship at Christmas, form and hope had deserted them. The board

:12:04.:12:10.

felt a change was essential and sacked the manager. Step forward the

:12:10.:12:14.

assistant - David Flitcroft and he hasn't looked back. While still far

:12:14.:12:18.

from safety, they have a fighting chance of playing second tier

:12:18.:12:26.

football next season. Mentally I left when Ian got the sack. You have

:12:26.:12:31.

a period of reflection. I had that while still working at the club. I

:12:31.:12:36.

knew was only short-term. In that period, I reflected where we had

:12:36.:12:44.

failed. It was important for me as a human being to galvanise people. It

:12:44.:12:49.

is about the players and the fans and about the board and being able

:12:49.:12:54.

to unify the club. When you had unification in any organisation you

:12:54.:12:58.

have the chance of doing special things. The games we have one and

:12:58.:13:02.

the points we have got, it is remarkable year in position

:13:02.:13:08.

fighting. Yesterday saw his side make the

:13:08.:13:11.

short trip south to achieving chasing promotion at the other end

:13:11.:13:16.

of the table. Barnsley's forms and the turn of the year has been

:13:17.:13:21.

impressive. They have picked up 29 points from a possible 44. Perhaps

:13:22.:13:29.

no coincidence the form has arrived with the arrival of David Flitcroft

:13:29.:13:35.

as manager. Do they have enough in the tag to avoid the drop? I think

:13:35.:13:39.

we need points, perhaps three points today and then follow that up with

:13:39.:13:43.

another win on the final day. Look at where Huddersfield is, it could

:13:44.:13:52.

go down to the wire. We have a tough run-in. We get knots forest. If

:13:52.:13:58.

anybody is capable of getting it it is best team, they really are

:13:58.:14:02.

playing. David Flitcroft has done a good job of things round. What with

:14:02.:14:09.

the implications be of relegation? One would be the money you get from

:14:09.:14:14.

Solidarity and the basic rewards, that would be reduced. The

:14:14.:14:18.

championship is a very competitive league. Arguably one of the best in

:14:18.:14:25.

the world. It has been a privilege and exciting being part of that for

:14:25.:14:31.

the last seven years and we do not want to lose that. We're in the best

:14:31.:14:38.

industry in the world. We have the world, player, coach manager, kit

:14:38.:14:45.

man. The job is so different from any other job. Make it exciting. I

:14:45.:14:51.

want to teach people, not just about football, but about life and how

:14:51.:15:01.
:15:01.:15:12.

rewarding it can be. Simon Cox came interval, with a great save from

:15:12.:15:22.
:15:22.:15:25.

Henry Lansbury. While Billy Sharp's volleys smacked the post.

:15:25.:15:30.

Barnsley's best chance, if you want to call it that, fell to, but he

:15:30.:15:40.
:15:40.:15:43.

visitors. I am not going to try and guess where that point will take us,

:15:43.:15:48.

I want to concentrate on our next game against Hull. I'm looking

:15:48.:15:53.

forward to planning an assault on them and that is all I can control

:15:53.:15:58.

at the minute. We have something that we are proud of, they put a

:15:58.:16:08.
:16:08.:16:12.

shift in and they are scrapping Tigers would have virtually

:16:12.:16:16.

guaranteed their return to the Premier League.

:16:16.:16:19.

They knew they couldn't confirm automatic promotion whatever the

:16:19.:16:24.

result on Friday, but Steve Bruce was still disappointed with their

:16:24.:16:30.

tepid performance. The Tigers best chance fell to David in injury time

:16:30.:16:37.

and with Watford winning yesterday, Hull's motion is not sealed. This

:16:37.:16:47.
:16:47.:16:51.

was a huge win for Huddersfield town Vaughan got his 10th goal of the

:16:51.:16:58.

city then track season. Three vital points for Huddersfield who are

:16:59.:17:02.

points clear of the relegation zone. Wednesday started lethargically

:17:02.:17:09.

against Ipswich and converts a terrible goal to town. The owls

:17:09.:17:13.

claimed what could be a vital point with an equaliser before the hour

:17:13.:17:17.

mark. Wednesday four points above the relegation zone with two games

:17:18.:17:24.

to go. Finally, two wins in his two games as Leeds boss meant they could

:17:24.:17:30.

relax at Birmingham city. Mullen scored the only goal in the 71st

:17:30.:17:35.

minute. Leeds can now start planning for next season. Hull City

:17:35.:17:39.

tantalisingly close, but not there yet. A win over Barnsley will be

:17:39.:17:46.

enough. Barnsley, second from bottom, I win against Hull will make

:17:46.:17:53.

him think they can stay out. Wednesday aren't safe yet, but they

:17:53.:17:56.

do have a 4-point cushion and Leeds United after flirting with

:17:56.:18:06.
:18:06.:18:08.

relegation are safe, but wallowing The manager calls this a colleague

:18:08.:18:18.
:18:18.:18:19.

bit of the season. They're not laughing at the moment. The one

:18:19.:18:23.

thing is that Watford have two massive games. They have big games.

:18:23.:18:30.

That is probably the saving grace for me, as at the moment, nine goals

:18:30.:18:40.
:18:40.:18:41.

from midfield. That has been a problem all season. Defensively,

:18:41.:18:45.

have a very solid defence, but it worries me that they're not strong

:18:45.:18:52.

enough in France. I just think they need to do it themselves. Watford

:18:52.:19:00.

went to do them any favours. Watford have got the best joint away record

:19:01.:19:06.

in the division with Hull City. What had's last game against Leeds

:19:06.:19:10.

United, and athletes, they are strong at home. Could Hull still

:19:10.:19:20.
:19:20.:19:20.

mess it up? If what you get a result on Friday night. Hull City fans,

:19:20.:19:27.

they 70,000 of them. I hope it will be all over by then. In an ideal

:19:27.:19:30.

world, we want to Leicester to win on Friday night and then Barnsley to

:19:31.:19:35.

win against Hull. Our region, that is what we want. It is a twist in

:19:35.:19:39.

the tale. David Flitcroft is a fascinating

:19:39.:19:43.

bloke to listen to. When he was talking about mentally leaving when

:19:43.:19:48.

the gaffer left. He seems to be getting it right, this is promotion

:19:48.:19:54.

form. He was philosophical in his words as he was part of that staff

:19:54.:20:00.

when his predecessor got it wrong. He has come in, change things around

:20:00.:20:05.

and he has them playing with spirit with a bit of character. He has them

:20:05.:20:10.

all together. It was a shame last week that with Derby County, they

:20:10.:20:17.

conceded that the 90th goal. A huge win for Huddersfield town and they

:20:17.:20:21.

have exactly what you need if you are in a battle like that. They have

:20:21.:20:31.
:20:31.:20:32.

strikers inform, scoring goals. his natural goalscorer and we're

:20:32.:20:35.

talking about how getting natural goalscorers. Vaughan is an

:20:35.:20:40.

experienced player, but I keep saying, the picture is not great at

:20:40.:20:46.

Huddersfield. Two great finishes by Jermaine and a bit of bad offending

:20:46.:20:53.

there, but great finish. They are scoring nice goals. He bagged

:20:53.:20:59.

another couple of goals like that. He has played at higher level, too.

:20:59.:21:04.

He is the main man for them. I would like to see him get a result at

:21:04.:21:08.

Bristol City because the last thing we want is Huddersfield and Barnsley

:21:08.:21:16.

as the last game of the season. massive point as the David Jones,

:21:16.:21:19.

it's been an up-and-down season. Jermaine Johnson has been

:21:20.:21:25.

outstanding. I think he is playing down the middle, I played up front

:21:25.:21:34.

with him and he has bags of pace. He's been in great form. I will be

:21:34.:21:42.

injured for the rest of the season. They are edging to safety. The last

:21:42.:21:48.

two draws have been good jewellers. They have to be careful defensively.

:21:48.:21:54.

Hopefully, they will have enough by then and it would go right down to

:21:54.:22:01.

the wire. Quiz time. Our brainboxes aren't here in the studio, they are

:22:01.:22:11.
:22:11.:22:13.

from Chesterfield as they take on man on.

:22:13.:22:19.

Gareth Bale side Tottenham from which club. Southampton. What was

:22:19.:22:29.
:22:29.:22:36.

Definitely maybe. Who did Paul Craig managed before taking over at

:22:36.:22:44.

Chesterfield? Accrington Stanley. What is the name of Chesterfield's

:22:44.:22:54.
:22:54.:23:03.

former ground? No. The Sultan gate. Who is the actor in anchorman?

:23:03.:23:11.

Ferrell. What is the name of the Prime Minister's wife? Mrs Cameron.

:23:11.:23:21.
:23:21.:23:23.

What is the capital city of Argentina? Buenos Aires or

:23:23.:23:33.
:23:33.:23:37.

the season. Let's get into League One. Donny were hoping to steal

:23:37.:23:41.

their promotion to the championship yesterday but is Neil Murray reports

:23:41.:23:51.
:23:51.:23:53.

it can work out like that. - - Neil Joss Labadie's and his free kick was

:23:53.:24:00.

the only goal. They just have to avoid defeat at Brentford and

:24:00.:24:06.

Descartes. Pompey fans were set celebrating the financial survival

:24:06.:24:12.

of their club. Blades defence was at fault for conceding three goals in

:24:12.:24:17.

11 first-half minutes. The defeat confirms the fact that United will

:24:17.:24:21.

have to try for promotion via the play-off route. Scunthorpe still

:24:21.:24:27.

have hope after this win at MK Dons. It came courtesy of a goal from Karl

:24:27.:24:32.

Hawley. If Colchester win, they win the Scunthorpe will probably keep

:24:32.:24:39.

them in which League One. Donny may have to forget about the title, but

:24:39.:24:43.

they know what they have to do to get motion, avoid defeat at

:24:43.:24:48.

Brentford. Lose and it is the play-offs. It is play-offs for

:24:49.:24:52.

Sheffield United after their defeat on the south coast. After Scunthorpe

:24:52.:24:59.

lost against Bury, but they can survive if they win and Colchester

:24:59.:25:03.

lose. Fingernails may suffer. I don't know if Doncaster have

:25:03.:25:07.

planned their promotion party yet, at this weekend would have been on

:25:07.:25:17.
:25:17.:25:18.

worst 45 minutes of the season. The pitch didn't help, we saw it there,

:25:18.:25:28.
:25:28.:25:29.

it was like a potato pitch. That was a great strike. That is fit to win

:25:29.:25:33.

any match, but he will be disappointed with that. He will look

:25:33.:25:38.

at it and say that the last two home games, that was a bad loss against

:25:38.:25:42.

Carlisle. It has gone down to the wire at Brentford. The saving grace

:25:42.:25:47.

could be that they are very strong on their travels. As the nerves got

:25:48.:25:54.

to them, it looks like that, so it is sometimes easier away from home.

:25:54.:25:58.

You learn a lot about teams. If nerves get to you, nowhere to hide.

:25:58.:26:05.

No. That is a bad defeat for Doncaster, because you have to go

:26:05.:26:11.

there and get a point. It will be tough on them, if they are in the

:26:11.:26:15.

play-offs, psychologically, if you come out of the top two and get in

:26:15.:26:20.

the play-offs, it psychologically damaging. And your defeats,

:26:20.:26:27.

Sheffield United fans will probably want to forget this match. Great

:26:27.:26:33.

result in his first game, but on the defensive side, he would be happy.

:26:33.:26:39.

Three goals in 11 first-half minutes. Shocking defending. They

:26:39.:26:44.

are sure of a play-off spot. That is one thing. But if you look at the

:26:44.:26:48.

big picture, it is the home form that is costing them. And the

:26:48.:26:52.

play-off form, they have never gone all the way in the play-offs, so not

:26:53.:26:56.

much of a silver lining. It is a lottery once you are in there,

:26:56.:27:01.

anything can happen. It is nothing to do what happens, it's about who

:27:01.:27:10.
