Joey Barton's Bristol Rovers have sealed the most sensational promotion from League Two thanks to a 7-0 win over Scunthorpe on the final day of the season.
The Gas recorded their biggest win since 1964 to pip Northampton Town to third place. The two sides both started the day on 77 points but the Cobblers had a superior goal difference of five. Jon Brady's side did their part with a 3-1 win at Barrow but there were plenty of nerves as Rovers continued to rack up the goals against Scunthorpe.
The Cobblers led the way for most of the afternoon and looked home and hosed as they went 3-1 up at Barrow at half-time. That margin of victory looked like being more than enough as it meant Rovers, who were 2-0 up at the break in their game, needed a five-goal swing in just 45 minutes.
