Coventry City 4th | Barnsley 15th (24)

Barnsley are the last team to beat Hill’s men, but there is no repeat on a slimy surface as City emerge from the ice-age. Alan Hill keeps the score down and Wesson has a quiet day. Hale feeds Whitehouse, and then the favour is returned for the second goal, a rocket shot from Hale.
