Wrexham are officially relegated due to the fact Mansfield are playing Dag & Red in the last game of the season.

ENGLAND
Wrexham are relegated[/color] after losing 2-0. So Darlington and Wycombe are in the play-offs, as they're no longer able to catch Hereford.
Stevenage lost and Exeter won, so Cambridge, Exeter and Burton are all in the play-offs[/color].
Stevenage's loss also means that Farsley Celtic are all but relegated, as they are now 3 points and 28 goals behind Halifax.

I do feel sorry for Wrexham. They had a last day escape last season but it was all to no avail as it only delayed the inevitable!

This weekend (25-28 Apr) is the last one in the Blue Square Prem, and the Scots Divs 1-3, and also the penultimate weekend of the Football League, so plenty of action all round...
ENGLAND Matches on Saturday 26 April unless stated
Premier League: Liverpool (reserves?) can seal the final Champions League place with a win at Birmingham, or if Everton fail to win on Sunday (home to Aston Villa). Fulham will be relegated if they fail to win and two of Bolton, Reading and Birmingham win (Man City v Fulham, Spurs v Bolton, Wigan v Reading, Birmingham v Liverpool).
Championship: West Brom will be promoted on Saturday if both Hull and Bristol City fail to win, or on Monday if they beat Southampton; if Bristol City win and Hull don't, then a draw on Monday will be enough. They will also be champions if they win and Stoke don't. (West Brom v Southampton (Mon), Hull v Crystal Palace, Sheff Utd v Bristol City, Colchester v Stoke) Stoke will also be promoted if they win and Hull don't; or if they draw, Hull lose and Bristol City don't win. In addition, Hull (72 pts), Bristol City (71), Watford (69) and Crystal Palace (68) can all secure play-off places, if they lose touch with Stoke (75), and remain/move at least four points clear of Wolves (66) and Ipswich (65). (Watford v Scunthorpe, Coventry v Wolves, Preston v Ipswich) Virtual crisp for anyone who works out the permutations for each individual team. ;D Sheffield Wednesday could be relegated this weekend. If they lose at relegation rivals Leicester, and Barnsley, Coventry and Norwich all avoid home defeats, then a win for Southampton on Monday would send the Owls down. (Leicester v Sheff Wed, Barnsley v Charlton, Coventry v Wolves, Norwich v QPR, West Brom v Southampton (Mon))
League One: Carlisle will be promoted if they win, and neither of Doncaster and Nottm Forest do. This would also confirm Doncaster, Forest and Southend's play-off places. (Millwall v Carlisle, Doncaster v Luton, Hartlepool v Nottm Forest) Leeds will seal the final play-off berth on Friday if they win at Yeovil; or on Saturday if Brighton fail to get a better result than Leeds. (Bristol Rovers v Brighton) Bournemouth will be down if they lose; or if they draw and Cheltenham avoid defeat. (Bournemouth v Crewe, Oldham v Cheltenham) Gillingham will be down if they lose and Cheltenham avoid defeat; or if they draw, Cheltenham win and Millwall avoid defeat. (Gillingham v Swindon)
League Two: MK Dons will be champions if they win; or if Peterborough lose; or if both draw (Bradford v MK Dons, Grimsby v Peterborough) Hereford will be promoted if they win and Stockport lose. This would confirm Rochdale and Stockport's play-off places. (Brentford v Hereford, Barnet v Stockport) Mansfield will be relegated if they lose, and Dag & Red, Notts County and Chester all win. (Mansfield v Rotherham, Darlington v Dag & Red, Notts County v Wycombe, Shrewsbury v Chester)
Conference and Scotland to follow later...

Blue Square Prem: LAST DAY Champions: Aldershot, with 100 points already. Play-offs: Torquay, Cambridge, Exeter and Burton. Relegated: Stafford, Droylsden, plus 2 from 3: 20 Halifax 45 -8 42 - Stevenage (6th) at home ---------------------------------------------- 21 Altrincham 45 -26 40 - Weymouth (18th) away 22 Farsley Celtic 45 -36 39 - Grays (13th) at home Farsley are as good as down - they'd need some record-breaking scores... Altrincham need to win. Even then, they'd realistically have to hope for Halifax to lose. Halifax could fall through the trapdoor if they lose and Altrincham win.
SCOTLAND
Division One: LAST DAY Champions: Hamilton Relegation Play-off: see below Relegated: Stirling 8 Morton 35 -21 34 - Partick (6th) away ------------------------------------- 9 Clyde 35 -22 34 - Stirling (10th) home Morton and Clyde are very closely matched. Morton lead by one on goal difference: both teams have scored 37 goals; Morton have let in 58, Clyde 59. If the two get different results, then whoever gets the better result is safe, and the other team must enter the play-offs. If both draw, then Clyde go into the play-offs. If both win, then Clyde must win by at least two more goals than Morton do, or win by one more goal and score more than Morton. If both lose, then Clyde must lose by at least two fewer goals, or lose by one fewer goal and score more.
Division Two: LAST DAY Champions: Ross County Play-offs: Airdrie, Raith, and one more Relegation Play-off: Cowdenbeath Relegated: Berwick 4 Alloa 35 0 53 - Berwick (10th) home -------------------------------------- 5 Peterhead 35 8 52 - Raith (3rd) away 6 Brechin 35 15 51 - Ross (1st) home Alloa are in the box seat, a point clear of the other two, and with a much easier game. A win at home to bottom club Berwick, and the play-off place is theirs. Peterhead could capitalise if Alloa fail to win, by getting a superior result... but if they also fail to win, then Brechin could overtake them. Brechin must win at home to the champions, and hope that Alloa and Peterhead both fail to win.
Division Three: LAST DAY Champions: East Fife, by MILES. They're 23 points ahead of 2nd. Play-offs: Stranraer, Montrose, Arbroath. In that order. Bottom Club: 9 Forfar 35 -27 32 - Dumbarton (8th) home 10 East Stirling 35 -25 31 - Montrose (3rd) home East Stirling will be bottom for the sixth season running if they lose; or if Forfar win; or if both draw. Otherwise, they'll move up to 9th.
This has been East Stirling's best points haul for a while - they haven't got more than 23 points since 2002.

Nothing can be confirmed in League 1 until next friday, depending on Leeds' situation...

Nothing can be confirmed in League 1 until next friday, depending on Leeds' situation... Not quite true. Swansea are still definitely promoted, and Leeds are in the top 6 anyway, so teams confirmed in the play-offs are still confirmed in the play-offs. As with the Gretna situation (which was particularly fragile a few weeks ago), I've been assuming that nothing will happen, and I've been mentioning when teams stand to gain/lose points because of court situations. As someone said earlier, theoretically any team could go bust or lose a bunch of points at any time.

What an afternoon! Premier League: Liverpool (reserves?) can seal the final Champions League place with a win at Birmingham, or if Everton fail to win on Sunday (home to Aston Villa). Fulham will be relegated if they fail to win and two of Bolton, Reading and Birmingham win (Man City v Fulham, Spurs v Bolton, Wigan v Reading, Birmingham v Liverpool). Liverpool will have to wait at least a day to mathematically confirm their spot... they drew at Birmingham to move 9 points clear of Everton, who have three games left and a far inferior goal difference.Fulham are right back in it with a last-gasp comeback win at Man City (first time they've won successive away games since 2003). West Brom aren't up yet after Hull's win, but could still confirm promotion with a win on Monday.Stoke won, but it goes down to the wire after Hull's late win. Bristol City are definitely in the play-offs after their defeat and draws for Wolves and Ipswich. Watford now only have one win in 13 (!), and Crystal Palace aren't there yet either. Sheffield Wednesday take it to the final day: they move above Leicester and Southampton by beating the former. It's one from five to fill the last relegation spot. It's all changed in League One! Carlisle are down to fourth after losing; Doncaster are in 2nd and Nottm Forest just one point behind them. Southend and Leeds will both be in the play-offs: Leeds sealed their place last night; Southend lost touch on the front-runners by losing today. Bournemouth win their sixth in a row, and Gillingham drew but aren't down yet. Two from four to go down. MK Dons are champions, winning 2-1 at Bradford. Hereford are promoted after they won 3-0 and Stockport lost. So Rochdale and Stockport are in the play-offs. Mansfield aren't down yet, but they lost and Dag & Red and Notts County both won, so they can only catch Chester.

Blue Square Prem: LAST DAY Kicked off at 5.20, results to follow later. SCOTLANDClyde must win the play-offs to survive[/color]. They won 3-0, but so did Morton, so Clyde fell one goal short. Alloa are in the play-offs[/color] - their win made the other results irrelevant. Forfar are bottom, just one year after being relegated from Division Two, because East Stirling won.

Farsley are relegated, unsurprisingly. They fell a mere 29 goals short. Altrincham are relegated as well, only managing a draw. A win would have put Halifax below them.

I think Altrincham had a similar lucky escape the previous season as well. However, Halifax are still in danger of going out of business so Altrincham could notch up a hat-trick.

Just checked and yeah Scarborough and Canvey Island's problems plus a move to 24 teams saved them despite finishing last.

Liverpool will have to wait at least a day to mathematically confirm their spot... they drew at Birmingham to move 9 points clear of Everton, who have three games left and a far inferior goal difference. Liverpool are in the Champions League (quali round), after Everton could only draw at Villa. Next weekend, attention is turned to the battle for 5th place.
