Final positions: Coventry City 17th | Queens Park Rangers 13th (22)

City fans have to live on their nerves as QPR take the lead. By half-time Coventry are ahead, thanks to Brian Kilcline’s thunderous free-kick and Dave Bennett’s cool finish. With 12 minutes left Kerslake hits the bar, but City hang on and, with Ipswich and Oxford losing, they are safe.
