League One Round Up...22/11/08...

The Cobblers moved up to fifteenth in League One following yesterday's 2-0 win at Hereford but know that Leeds will come to Sixfields all gun blazing on Tuesday night. Gary McAllister's men followed up their impressive 5-2 win in the FA Cup First Round Replay over Town with a 4-1 home win over Hartlepool United. Jermaine Beckford moved onto eighteen goals for the season with two in the game as Leeds retain sixth spot.

At the top, the game of the day saw Scunthorpe, top at the start of the day, take on Leicester who were in second. It was the visitors who took top spot though as goals from Lloyd Dyer and Andy King scored the goals to propel them to the League One summit.

MK Dons moved up to second, also above Scunthorpe after they recorded and impressive 3-0 win at Walsall. Jemal Johnson set the Dons on their way before Ali Gerba and Mark Wright sealed the win. Millwall failed to take advantage of Scunthorpe dropping points as they were held at Orient and it took a goal-line clearence to deny the O's taking all three points.

Peterborough's fine run of form went on as they beat Colchcester 2-1 at London Road and they stay above Leeds despite their hammering of Hartlepool.

At the other end, Dario Gradi took charge of Crewe once again but insisted that it was only on a temporary basis as he saw his side lose 3-0 at home to Stockport and whoever comes in at Gresty Road has a massive job to do. Cheltenham are still in trouble after they lost to a single goal at Carlisle while Hereford's defeat to the Cobblers leaves them five points from safety. Colchester are in the bottom four after that loss at Peterborough.

There's a full fixture list on Tuesday night in League One and it's top against bottom as Leicester host Crewe at the Walker Stadium. MK Dons also face one of the strugglers as they meet Hereford while Scunthorpe will look to bounce back from their weekend defeat as they travel to Tranmere.
