League 1 Roundup: Peterborough secure play-off place as Shrewsbury are relegated
CONOR WASHINGTON’S double sealed Peterborough’s place in the play-offs – and condemned Shrewsbury to relegation.
Washington scored twice in Posh’s 4-2 away win. Lloyd Osgrove and Josh McQuoid also weighed in with goals.
Swindon – who were battling Peterborough for the final play-off place – went down 2-0 away at Notts County.
That win, courtesy of Alan Sheehan and Callum McGregor goals, lifted struggling County out of the bottom four – but they could still be relegated next weekend if they lose and other results go against them.
Champions Wolves were held to a 1-1 draw at Coventry while fellow promoted side Brentford were beaten 4-1 at Colchester.
Crewe, held to goalless draw at Bristol City, are just one point above the drop zone and face a nervous last-day fight for survival.
James Dayton’s strike handed Oldham a 1-0 away victory at relegation-threatened Carlisle, who must win their last two games to have a chance of staying up.
Tranmere – defeated 2-0 at Leyton Orient yesterday – drop into the final relegation place.
Stevenage – already relegated – pulled off a surprise 3-2 win over mid-table Walsall.
