Joe Jones

What's been happening in League Two over the last week?

Here is Pride of Nottingham's round-up of the biggest League Two news from the last seven days.

- Unseasonal weather played havoc with Easter Monday's fixture list with several football matches, including the League Two games of Chesterfield against Newport County and Morecambe against Cambridge United.

- Luton Town midfielder Luke Berry was carried off on a stretcher two minutes into Friday's 2-1 loss away to Colchester United, the Hatters later confirming that the player dislocated his left ankle and fractured his fibula.

- The EFL has asked Accrington Stanley owner Andy Holt to explain a bonus scheme where he buys the players burgers if they win as the arrangement is not written into the players' contracts, as per the EFL regulations.

- Accrington goalkeeper Aaron Chapman went to hospital as a precaution after being involved in a car crash before Monday's win over Notts County.

- Accrington striker Billy Kee, Cheltenham forward Mohamed Eisa and Wycombe striker Adebayo Akinfenwa will contest the League Two Player of the Season award.

- The League Two Team of the Season was also named, featuring the following players: Lee Burge (Coventry), Dan Potts (Luton), Alan Sheehan (Luton), Jordan Willis (Coventry), Jack Stacey (Luton), Michael Bostwick (Lincoln), Sean McConville (Accrington), Luke Berry (Luton), Adebayo Akinfenwa (Wycombe), Danny Hylton (Luton), and Billy Kee (Accrington).

- In addition, Accrington boss John Coleman was named League Two Manager of the Year.

- The FA released its list of how much money clubs paid in agent fees over the last 12 months -  Coventry City were top of League Two (£113,620), Mansfield Town second (£85,940), Chesterfield third (£80,477) and then Notts County on £76,426.
