Their promotion already in the bag, Frank Lampard’s Coventry thrashed Portsmouth 5-1 to go an unassailable 10 points clear at the top with two games to spare.

It was also a good night for Wrexham who moved back into the promotion playoff places, ahead of Hull on goal difference, after winning 1-0 at relegation-threatened Oxford United thanks to a Josh Windass goal.
