League One Results 13th April Part 2

Leyton Orient 2-1 Norwich City
Everyone said Leeds had it in the bag and look what happened to them. Now it’s Norwich’s turn to let it out of the bag (it’s just a shame they weren’t playing Sunderland really or this joke would actually have been funny). Orient’s win gives them a three-point cushion to sit on.
Norwich left Owain Tudur Jones and Josh Dawkin out again. Is that why they lost? Unfortunately, probably not.

Milton Keynes Dons 0-0 Oldham Athletic
Milton Keynes Dons continue to end their season with a whimper but at least they’re in a better position than Oldham, who could yet end their season with relegation. But they’re six points ahead and they’ll have 50 points if they win their game in hand.
Jermaine Easter played for MK Dons and he hit the post so he’s getting closer. Oldham are still without Joe Jacobson, possibly for the season and I’m delighted to announce that I finally know what’s wrong with him. He has a pelvic problem. I’m not surprised actually, the club were keeping so quiet about his injury it just had to be somewhere a bit naughty.

Southend United 2-2 Brentford

Southend are only five points from safety so they might stay up. And if they don’t, the Shrimpers will be able to play against the Shrimps (Morecambe) next season which should be great fun. We all know what Shrimpers do to Shrimps and it isn’t losing to them at football. Brentford remain in the top half of the table.
Brentford’s first-choice goalkeeper Nikki Bull has recovered from injury. He didn’t go back into the team but he did steal Lewis Price’s place on the bench. He might be back on the bench next time though because Wojciech Szczesny was substituted and if you’re a goalkeeper, that can only mean one thing.

Tranmere Rovers 0-3 Wycombe Wanderers
Wycombe are now just three points behind Tranmere, who are themselves just six points from safety. They must like Tranmere a lot if they want them to get relegated together. Unfortunately, after this result their feeling are unlikely to be reciprocated.
Ash Taylor got a shot on target for Tranmere.

Yeovil Town 1-1 Millwall
Yeovil got a valuable point that moves them seven points clear of the relegation zone. Millwall’s point was quite valuable too as they probably didn’t deserve it but Leeds’ win meant they replaced Millwall in the top two.
Gavin Williams got the assist for Yeovil’s goal with Shaun MacDonald also playing in midfield. Manager Terry Skiverton says Gavin was “on a different planet” which makes his assist even more impressive. Both Gavin and Shaun could have scored but I’m quite glad they didn’t in a way because I live with a Millwall supporter.
Neither Nathan Jones not Arron Davies were in Yeovil’s squad even though there was a free place on the bench.
