Star of the weekend 

Brett Pitman – Bournemouth

Cherries’ striker Pitman was in top form and grabbed a brace to ensure they picked up another win on the road at Darlington and stay top of League Two, which continues their transformation from relegation strugglers last term.

Game of the weekend

Norwich City 2-2 Charlton Athletic

The Canaries hit back from 2-0 down with a last-gasp equaliser to deny Charlton top spot in League One and continue their improvement under Paul Lambert.

Goal of the weekend

Peter Sweeney – Grimsby

A perfectly executed free kick from fully 30 yards that bent into the bottom corner. It was the crucial second goal in a 2-0 win that lifts the Mariners further away from the relegation zone, and leaves Torquay looking nervously over their shoulders.

Quote of the weekend

Wycombe manager Peter Taylor gets hot under the collar over their first half showing against MK Dons.

“The crowd reaction at half time was absolutely right, I'd have booed them myself. I thought the first half was totally unacceptable personally speaking and I think that certain players, and I've told them, have got to have a real good think to themselves, because we've got to do a lot better than that.”

Controversial moment of the weekend

Yeovil manager Terry Skiverton ‘not commenting’ on the officials after Southampton were awarded a penalty in the Glovers’ 2-0 defeat at St Mary’s.

"I'm not going to comment on them. The only thing that I can say is that I am disgusted as a manager. I'm not going to end up getting myself into trouble, but when there's an incident where - no, I can't comment because I'm going to get myself into trouble.

"I've got to laugh about it now, because in all my years as a professional and amateur footballer, I have never seen a decision for the second penalty like that. So I'd rather not say."

Shock of the weekend

Morecambe recorded only their second win of the campaign against red-hot promotion favourites Notts County with a battling 2-1 victory at Christie Park.
