Title showdown

Last weekend saw MK Dons and Peterborough clinch promotion to League One but this time around it is all about the title.

Paul Ince's men are at Valley Parade hoping to secure their second trophy of the season while Posh travel to a Grimsby side on a barren spell of six straight league losses.

Third-placed Hereford tightened their grip on the final automatic promotion slot with a win over bottom side Wrexham, which also sealed the Dragons

relegation fate.

The final ticket to the Conference lies in the realistic hands of Mansfield, Dagenham, Notts County and Chester although Macclesfield, Accrington and Shrewsbury are not mathematically out of the mire.

The battle at the foot of the table looks set to be the most intriguing in the final two weekends of the campaign.

There is certainly little excitement surrounding the play-offs with Wycombe and Darlington guranteed a place, while Stockport and Rochdale still clutch an outside chance of creeping into third.

So, it leaves our very own Magpies in the thickest League Two action in the campaign climax.

It is not a pressure that will be welcomed but a fight they will be determined to come out the other end of.

Game of the day: Bradford v MK Dons

Stuart McCall's Bradford stand in the way of the MK Dons wrapping up the league title this weekend.

McCall... Ending the season strongly

The Bantams have been in a good spell of form of late rising the ranks to ninth with just one defeat in the last eight games.

It is not a record which will at all worry the Dons though as the away day specialists have already chalked up 17 wins away from Stadium:MK this season.

It has not been all positive press for Paul Ince this week though.

Stockport boss Jim Gannon hit out at the Dons claiming they were 'arrogant' after securing promotion at Edgeley Park last week.

The Dons halted the Hatters' ten-match unbeaten run but Gannon still accused the visitors of a lack of respect.

Meanwhile McCall's City will be looking to set a marker as they prepare for next season's promotion push.

League One next season.

Graham Turner's Bulls have been jibed at all season as the over-achievers in the basment tier but it will only make the celebration sweeter if they can secure going up in London.

Notts and Chester City can seal up their League Two status in their respective matches.

The Magpies host Wycombe while the Blues go to Shrewsbury.
