League 1 Likely for Leeds After Loss

A late Southampton goal from Bradley Wright-Phillips consigned 10-man Leeds to a 1-0 defeat on Saturday and pushed them a step nearer the Championship trapdoor. Bookmakers reacted by cutting them for relegation with just 4/7 (Coral) the best price on them dropping down.

After the weekend matches, it appears as though Southend will be joining Luton in League 1 next season - with one of either Leeds or Hull (6/4 Blue Square) also staring next season in the country's third flight.

The Tigers did their survival hopes the power of good at the Britannia Stadium on Saturday, with Nick Barmby's last minute equaliser enough to move them a point clear of Leeds with just two matches remaining.

Rest assured, if Dennis Wise's men fail to beat the drop, they are bound to be installed as short-priced favourites to win League 1 next season!
