Coventry City 14th | Shrewsbury Town 17th (24)

The old warhorse Arthur Rowley is one goal shy of the British scoring record but Brian Hill shackles him. On a wet afternoon, 18-year-old Ronnie Rees makes an impressive debut. Jimmy Hill blames two games a week for this lacklustre game with Hugh Barr especially off-colour.
