Carlisle og Swansea møtes på fk tirsdag, og begge er vel ivrige etter å sikre opprykk.
Kan passe bra for Leeds å revansjere bortetapet neste helg mot et (muligens) slitent Carlisle.

Så spørs det da, om vi er i play-off eller på 2.plass den 15.april?
Kan bli en merkelig oppladning til Huddersfield-kampen, om det offentliggjøres noe fra voldgiftsdomstolen.

Edit: Ser nå at denne saken er ventet å ta en uke. Da blir det business as usual både 15.april og 19.april borte mot Millwal og akkurat Millwall-kampen kan bli tøff. De er kun 2 poeng foran Gillingham i dag, og kan måtte kjempe for livet mot Leeds om 2 uker.

Håper Leeds går opp!  Tror da det! Eg syntes vi må få igjen 5-6 poeng!

League One round-up
Swans are champions, Rovers held, Shrimpers beat Carlisle

Swansea have claimed the League One title despite losing to Yeovil, Doncaster drew at Leyton Orient while Southend beat 10-man Carlisle at Brunton Park.
Despite 10-man Swansea losing 2-1 at home to Yeovil, Carlisle's late home defeat to red-hot Southend means Roberto Martinez's side cannot be caught at the summit.
Brighton remain with an outside chance of catching Leeds in the race for a play-off spot thanks to a late 2-1 win over Hartlepool while The Whites wrapped up a double over Millwall following a 2-0 success.
Doncaster remain in third despite drawing 1-1 at Leyton Orient while Nottingham Forest have closed within a point of Rovers after seeing off Tranmere.

Brighton 2 Hartlepool 1
Brighton remain with an outside chance of catching Leeds for sixth following a late 2-1 win over Hartlepool. Joel Porter's 75th minute effort cancelled out Glenn Murrary's opener, but The Seagulls were not to be denied and claimed the all-important win thanks to Dean Cox's late effort.

Bristol Rovers 1 Gillingham 1
Gillingham remain in the bottom four after being held to heart-breaking late 1-1 draw at Bristol Rovers. The Gills led for half of the match after John Nutter put the visitors in front on 39 minutes. The goal looked like giving the Kent outfit a vital win until Steve Elliott's late half-volley rescued a point for Rovers.

Carlisle 1 Southend 2
Southend's late 2-1 win over Carlisle has confirmed Swansea as champions. Simon Hackney capitalised on a mistake by Darryl Flahavan to cancel out Charlie Mulgrew's opener, but David Raven's sending off set up a nervy finish. With the finishing line in sight The Shrimpers snatched all three points courtesy of Lee Barnard's far post header.

Crewe 3 Cheltenham 1
Crewe eased their relegation worries with a crucial 3-1 win over fellow strugglers Cheltenham. Nicky Maynard was the hero, again, with his fine hat-trick giving Crewe all three points. The striker opened the scoring early on, but Steve Gillespie levelled matters for the visitors shortly after the hour mark. However, Crewe were not to be denied with a brace inside eight minutes by Maynard completing a fine treble.

Huddersfield 1 Tranmere 0
Huddersfield secured their second home victory of the week following a 1-0 win over Tranmere. The Terriers began the week with a win over local rivals Leeds and have ended the week with six out of six points courtesy of Andy Booth's winner against the Merseysiders.

Leyton Orient 1 Doncaster 1
Doncaster missed the chance to maintain the distance between themselves and Forest and Southend after being held by the struggling O's. Wayne Gray gave the home side a half-time lead, but Mark McCammon's second half effort rescued a point.

Millwall 0 Leeds 2
Leeds United weathered heavy spells of pressure from Millwall before running out 2-0 winners at The Den. The Lions controlled the first half and were unlucky not to open the scoring when Jem Karacan's shot struck the post. Leeds broke the deadlock after 70 minutes courtesy of David Prutton's well-taken shot before Andy Hughes' close-range effort wrapped up the smash-and-grab win.

Northampton 2 Oldham 0
Northampton have leapfrogged Oldham in the League One ladder following a 2-0 success at Sixfields. Second half goals from Giles Coke and Ryan Gilligan secured all three points for The Cobblers.

Nottingham Forest 1 Luton 0
Nottingham Forest have closed to within a point of third-placed Doncaster after beating relegated Luton at the City Ground. Nathan Tyson's 67th minute effort delivered the knock-out blow to The Hatters.

Swansea 1 Yeovil 2
Swansea's patchy form continued at home to Yeovil, but it mattered little as they are now champions anyway. Goals from Terry Skiverton and Aidan Downes put The Glovers in control of the game before the home side responded. Andy Robinson pulled one back, but the game ended on a sour note for the home side following Darren Pratley's dismissal.

Swindon 6 Port Vale 0
Swindon ended their poor run of form with an emphatic 6-0 success over relegated Port Vale at the County Ground. The Robins netted an astonishing five first-half goals all by different players. Lee Peacock got the demolition job under way before further goals from Craig Easton, Jack Smith, Anthony McNamee and Michael Timlin had the home side in firm control at the interval. Despite a quieter second half, Ben Joyce added a sixth in injury time.

Walsall 1 Bournemouth 2
Bournemouth maintained their slender hopes of avoiding the drop with yet another unlikely victory, this time at Walsall. Although Kevin Betsy cancelled out Danny Hollands' opener, The Cherries were not to be denied. Jo Kuffour swiftly restored the visitors' lead before Brett Pitman's second half penalty wrapped up a fifth straight success for the South Coast outfit.
