Bolton Wanderers delayed the promotion party by a couple of days by holding the Blues to a draw at the Toughsheet Community Stadium, but now Portsmouth are this evening playing their rearranged fixture with Barnsley knowing exactly what is expected of them. A draw would secure promotion whilst a win would see them crowned the champions of the division.
