Division One: Niall Quinn brought his season's tally to 19 when he opened the scoring for Sunderland against Huddersfield on Saturday - their 2-0 win means they can clinch promotion by beating Bury on Tuesday night. Kevin Kilbane (WBA) and John Durnin (Portsmouth) were also amongst the goals at the weekend but both finished on the losing side, to QPR and Bradford respectively.
Division Two: Former Irish under-21 defender David Greene helped ease Colchester's relegation worries by scoring the only goal in their win over Walsall while Kieron Durkan got one of bottom club Macclesfield's goals in their surprise 3-2 defeat of Preston. Division Three: A month after signing a new contract that was to keep him at Halifax until the end of next season former Irish international midfielder Kieran O'Regan was sacked as manager of the club on Wednesday.
