Coventry City 4th | Tottenham Hotspur 15th (21)
There is no revenge for Spurs as City turn in a marvellous first-half display which should have yielded five goals. After a poor pre-season preparation they show no mercy and Spurs’ new man Chris Fairclough can’t handle David Speedie, who scores a superb curler on his debut.
