Coventry City 12th | Crystal Palace 11th (22)
Ian Wallace and Kenny Sansom sent off for violent conduct, throwing punches, 80 minutes.
An exciting first half was followed by a dull second, enlivened by the double sending off ten minutes from time. Wallace and Sansom exchange punches which fail to connect, and the pair are unfortunate to be sent off. City are worth their win as Crystal Palace’s good season tails off.
