EFL League One News
Take a look at what Wrexham need from Saturday's League One fixtures to seal their third consecutive promotion.
Wrexham co-owner Ryan Reynolds has said the crucial last weeks of Wrexham's bid for promotion have developed "an eight-inch ulcer in my stomach."
A player from a third-division English club was sentenced to 14 months in prison Thursday for causing the death of a cyclist three years ago, West Yorkshire police said.
Wrexham have been described as a "circus" by Charlton Athletic manager Nathan Jones ahead of Saturday's showdown between the promotion-hunting League One sides.
After back-to-back promotions, Wrexham have been enjoying another stellar season, sitting in second place in League One as they bid for a place in the Championship.
