Exeter City retained their Football League status and ended promotion chasing Scunthorpe United's world record 28-match unbeaten run in the process as they beat the Iron at St James' Park.
A Craig Woodman strike on the stroke of half-time gave the Grecians the lead before Jimmy Keohane added a second in the second half to seal the win for Paul Tisdale's side and brought an end to Scunthorpe manager Russ Wilcox's unbeaten start as Iron manager, a world record that was previously held by Andre Villas-Boas when he was in charge of Porto, as well.
Despite their defeat, Scunthorpe were still able to clinch promotion as fourth-placed Fleetwood Town failed to beat Southend United.
For the Grecians, it was an end to what has proved to be a season of transition as Tisdale has been forced to blood a number of young players due to financial constraints, but those young players will learn from the experience and hopefully stronger for it in the 2014-15 campaign.
