Portsmouth cannot celebrate promotion from League One, after they were held to a 1-1 draw at Bolton, but they can now smell the end of a 12-year Championship absence with three games of the season remaining.

With second-placed Derby triumphant over Leyton Orient, this draw proved more damaging for Bolton, whose fate for promotion is now out of their hands, hovering four points off the top two with a game in hand on the Rams.
