Coventry City 14th | Nottingham Forest 5th (22)

A travesty of a result, decided by the late penalty when Davenport appeared to fall over Dyson’s leg. City fail to kill off feeble Forest when they had them on the ropes in the first half, with Melrose and Hateley especially guilty. Wallace’s equaliser is his first goal for eleven games.
