Coventry City 6th | Charlton Athletic 15th (22)

Another scrappy home win, thanks to a good defensive display but it’s not pretty. A nervous last ten minutes are wasted by the average visitors whose star man is keeper Wright who saves well from Rees and Gould. Kearns celebrates his 300th league game by keeping Len Glover quiet.
