    Samuel Ager: Quiet week for VAR. Must be the first week it hasn't had any controversy.

    There's still time - there were some tight offside calls in that noughts and crosses game...

  8. goal

    Maidenhead 1-2 Stockport, Dover 0-1 Chesterfield

    Stockport have come from behind to take the lead against Maidenhead and that goal could mean they creep into the National League play-off places!

    Former Wolves forward Liam McAlinden sends them ahead with a lovely goal from 25 yards.

    Meanwhile, Chesterfield win a penalty against Dover after a handball is given and Tom Denton puts them ahead from the spot.

  10. Meanwhile, at Leyton Orient...

    We mentioned earlier that, in the absence of any actual football, League Two club Leyton Orient are recreating their game away at Bradford on Football Manager this afternoon.

    They've invited supporters to take on the role of O's boss for the day. Through online polls, they selected the team and have been making tactical decisions during the match.

    It's not going particularly well for the O's, though, because they're currently 1-0 down...

  14. Cups should give way to finishing league season - Jenas

    Former England midfielder Jermaine Jenas believes cup competitions should be axed after elite football in Britain was postponed until at least 3 April because of coronavirus.

    Uefa is set to discuss Euro 2020 on Tuesday, before Premier League clubs meet for a second time on Thursday,

    Jenas says the authorities should concentrate on "finishing the leagues", telling the Football Daily podcast: "We have to think smaller right now. Get rid of this season's cup competitions and finish the league when we can, even if it means moving the Euros to 2021."

    Bradford Park Avenue are streaming coverage of the game live on their Facebook page, for the benefit of elderly supporters who wished to stay at home because of the coronavirus outbreak. An excellent idea.

    A couple of goals to bring you from the National League.

    Kristian Dennis has got his second of the afternoon to double Notts County's lead against Eastleigh.

    Ben Greenhalgh has scored twice for Tonbridge Angels in National League South today.

    If that name is slightly familiar to you, he won a football talent competition on Sky One about a decade ago called "Football's Next Star" and earned a pro deal with Italian giants Inter Milan.
