Exeter City ran out comfortable 2-0 winners at home against Carlisle United.
After a goalless first period, Exeter came to life and wrapped up the result through goals by Scot Bennett midway through the half and Matt Grimes with a couple of minutes to spare.
The result – and a first home clean-sheet of the season – put the Grecians into seventh at the end of the afternoon, seeing Exeter occupy a play-off place for the first time in over a year.
David Wheeler and Bennett came back into the starting XI for the Grecians’...

Exeter City earned three points in a pulsating game at the Crown Ground, triumphing 3-2 at Accrington Stanley.
Goals a few minutes either side of half-time from Liam Sercombe and Tom Nichols got City into a commanding position, but a strike from distance by John O’Sullivan halved the deficit.
Matt Grimes curled in a free-kick before sub Seamus McCartan quickly pulled another back, to set up a grandstand finish.
But Exeter held on to move within goal difference of the play-off places.
Exeter City have completed the loan signing of Ryan Harley from Swindon Town. Harley originally moved to St James Park from Weston-super-Mare in November 2007 and went on to play 144 times in City colours in his first spell, finding the net on 32 occasions. Since leaving the Park to join Swansea City in 2011, the attacker has represented Brighton & Hove Albion, MK Dons (on loan) before joining Swindon in July 2013. Harley featured 25 times for the Robins last season, but he has not made a competitive appearance since March. Ryan’s loan is initially scheduled to keep him at St James...
Exeter City and Newport County AFC played out an entertaining 2-2 draw at Rodney Parade.
In truth it could have been better for the Grecians, who were two goals to the good at the interval through a Tom Nichols penalty and a corking effort by Graham Cummins.
However the hosts came steaming out of the blocks in the second period and got back on terms through Yan Klukowski and Max Porter.
Both sides had chances for a winner, but neither could quite take them as a draw was the result in South Wales.
Exeter City finished on the wrong side of a famous FA Cup upset as Warrington Town earned a place in the second round of the FA Cup at Cantilever Park with a 1-0 win.
It was a header from a corner by Craig Robinson that was inadvertently turned in by Graham Cummins which was the difference on the scoreboard at the final whistle, and gave the Evo-Stik NPL Division One North team a place in the hat.
Liam Sercombe and David Noble came in for Jimmy Keohane and Arron Davies in the two changes Paul Tisdale made to the line-up which...

Exeter City came from behind to earn a 1-1 draw against top-of-the-league Luton Town at St James Park.
It was no less than Exeter deserved from a performance which saw the home side control a bulk of the possession and create most of the chances, but it was always going to need a gutsy performance as the Hatters took an early lead.
It was Scott Griffiths that rose highest after just three minutes to head in a corner, leaving Exeter trailing at the break.
But with 20 minutes to play, Tom Nichols got Exeter on terms...
The Grecians grabbed a sixth win in eight games to return to the top half of the table as they overcame Morecambe 2-0 at the Globe Arena.
Shaun Beeley inadvertently gave Exeter the lead early on as he diverted Christian Ribeiro’s cross into his own net, and second-half sub Tom Nichols rounded it off late on with a fine finish.
It also represented a first clean-sheet of the season with everyone mucking in to help Christy Pym keep the door shut from the Shrimps attack.
Exeter City manager Paul Tisdale named an unchanged...
