Coventry City 10th | Grimsby Town 12th (24)

City leapfrog the Mariners, who are later promoted, on a bone-hard frozen pitch. Billy Myerscough coolly scores from Hewitt’s through ball before Dixon forces an error for number two. Lightening is a virtual spectator. 500 cold, young fans get pop, crisps and autographs afterwards.
