Paulo Di Canio's Swindon wrap up the League Two title while Shrewsbury join them in gaining promotion to League One following Saturday's fixtures.

A double from Paul Benson helped Swindon Town secure the League Two title with a 5-0 win over Port Vale at the County Ground.

Further goals from Aden Flint, Matt Richie and Alan Connell completed the scoring as Paulo Di Canio's side added silverware to their promotion party.

Shrewsbury Town booked their spot alongside the Robins in League One for next season with a 1-0 win over Dagenham and Redbridge.

A James Collins goal wrapped up third place for Shrews manager Graham Turner, who recorded a promotion with the same club 33 years ago.

One of Crawley Town, Torquay United and Southend United will join the pair in securing automatic promotion next Saturday.
