League One
Leicester City have won League One and bounce back to the Championship a season after being relegated. Peterborough continue their climb up the divisions and will join Leicester in the Championship along with the playoff winner. Scunthorpe needed a late goal from captain Cliff Byrne to earn a 1-1 draw against Tranmere to claim the final playoff spot. At the bottom end of the table, Carlisle avoided relegation thanks to a 2-0 win over Millwall on the final day of the season. Graham Kavanagh and Paul Thirwell scored the vital goals to ensure safety for Carlisle. As a result, Northampton were relegated. Crewe, Cheltenham, and Hereford are also going down to League One.
