Coventry City 14th | Crystal Palace 12th (22)
Newly promoted Palace slaughter City with a slick performance. Salako is the architect, scoring with a header and crossing for two more goals. Poor old Pickering is eventually withdrawn to avoid more embarrassment. It’s the worst display of the season and City’s progress is halted.
