Sports Mole rounds up the action in League Two on New Year's Day.

Gillingham moved back to the top of League Two with a 1-0 win away at Southend United in an early kickoff this afternoon.

Port Vale were unable to respond, losing 2-0 at home to Fleetwood Town, and remain second.

A 90th-minute winner from Courtney Cameron saw Rotherham United come from a goal down to beat Rochdale 2-1, and move into third place.

There were 1-0 away wins for Exeter City and Aldershot Town respectively. Exeter beat Wycombe Wanderers to move closer to the playoff places, while Aldershot eased their relegation concerns with victory at Barnet.

At the bottom, there were wins for Bristol Rovers and AFC Wimbledon. Rovers beat Plymouth Argyle 2-1 in an early kickoff, while Wimbledon won a dramatic encounter at Torquay United.

Rene Howe had equalised in the 89th minute for the home side, before Stacy Long scored from the penalty spot to give Wimbledon their first win in seven games.

Elsewhere York City won 3-0 at home to Burton Albion and Oxford United won 1-0 against Cheltenham Town.

Northampton Town won their second game in a row, beating Dagenham & Redbridge 3-1 at home, while Accrington Stanley won 1-0 at home to Chesterfield thanks to a Romuald Boco goal.

Finally, Bradford City remain in the playoff places despite a goalless draw at Morecambe.
