Birmingham City 21st | Coventry City 1st (22)

City win the first ‘derby’ for 13 years and Joe Mallet’s relegated Blues are in deep trouble. An ugly game of 47 free-kicks and little football is settled by a penalty after Green and Martin’s sandwich on Gould. 10,000 away fans cause traffic chaos and many miss the first half-hour.
