EFL Extra: Southampton on a surge

THE TIMES
About this episode

With eight games to go time is running out for teams who want to climb out of relegation or into automatic or play off contention. So who is best placed?

Southampton are on an incredible run and followed up wins over Fulham and Coventry by beating norwich to break into the play offs, Middlesbrough stalled again at home and West Brom turned a corner with an eye catching win over play off hopefuls Hull City..

In League One Lincoln and Cardiff are all but up, whereas the playoffs are wide open, as far down as Barnsley in 12th place. At the bottom a vital win for Blackpool and managerial changes elsewhere. 

League Two sees Oldham on a charge a fifth manager for Barrow...but it's not Gregor Robertson. 

Producer Neil Cartmell joins Gregor Robertson for all the latest from the football League.
