Coventry City 17th in Division One | Watford 20th in Division One

The sanded pitch is like a beach and the holders slide out of the Cup despite having 17 goal attempts to Watford’s two. Senior is the assassin, scoring ten minutes after coming on as sub, when City failed to clear a free-kick. Steve Harrison is the new boss at Watford, replacing Bassett.
