Exeter City secured their status as a Football League team in some style, beating the league leaders Scunthorpe United 2-0 at St James Park.
When the pressure was on, City turned in one of their most complete performances of the season to dominate the game in almost its entirety – and the Grecians also ended Scunthorpe’s remarkable 28-game unbeaten run.
In the end, everyone went home happy – Fleetwood could only manage a draw in their game against Southend, meaning that Scunthorpe confirmed promotion.
Exeter City and Chesterfield shared the points with a 1-1 draw at the Proact Stadium, in a game that could easily have gone either way by the full-time whistle.
Matt Grimes’ first professional goal – a deflected free-kick – got City going in the second half, and the Grecians created a host of chances to extend that lead before Sam Morsy was sent off for the hosts for a poor tackle on Grimes.
But Eoin Doyle won a penalty late in the game and scored it himself, with the game ultimately ending a goal apiece.

Exeter City succumbed to a 2-0 defeat at the hands of Bury in the Sky Bet League 2 fixture at Gigg Lane.

The deadlock was broken by Chris Hussey’s free-kick midway through the second half, and Exeter were reduced to ten men soon after as captain Danny Coles picked up a second yellow card.
Exeter dug deep and tried to force the equaliser, but were...
