What Happened On Saturday In The National League?

By Sam Elliott

Sutton United can see the finishing line after the leaders secured another vital victory.

Matt Gray’s team won 3-0 at Maidenhead to put them within touching distance.

Goals from David Ajiboye, Issac Olaofe and Louis John confirmed victory - and two more wins will do it.

But they could even win the title next weekend, if Torquay United lose in the meantime.

Sutton are four points clear and the Gulls go to Stockport County on Sunday, a match live on BT Sport.

Hartlepool United are back up to third after a solid 3-1 win at Aldershot.

Luke Armstrong, Rhys Oates and Nicky Featherstone secured success in Hampshire.

It was a great day for Wrexham who took a big step to securing a top seven place.

They returned from the dead to defeat Boreham Wood 3-2, Reece Hall-Johnson the difference as his brace inspired the Dragons.

Notts County and Bromley are both gunning for a spot - they drew 2-2 in a helter-skelter game at Meadow Lane.

Chesterfield hold onto seventh spot but they didn’t do themselves justice in a 0-0 draw at home to a Wealdstone side who have been shipping goals.

Eastleigh are still in there fighting - Sam Smart, Tyrone Barnett and Joe Tomlinson scored as they eased past Barnet 3-0.

Dagenham refuse to give up on the play-offs and their incredible run goes on.

A seventh win in eight came against FC Halifax Town as Paul McCallum once again inspired - and they are four points away as the Shaymen slipped out of the top seven.

Solihull Moors are giving their fans hope that next season could bring great things.

A 2-1 win over Woking was secured by Adam Rooney and Kyle Hudlin.

In Tom Knowles Yeovil Town have a big talent and he scored twice in the 3-1 win over King’s Lynn Town.

Andrew Dallas was also at the double for Weymouth as they defeated Altrincham 2-1.
