Coventry City 8th in Division One | West Bromwich Albion 2nd in Division One
A nerve-tingling cup-tie played in skating-rink conditions on a freezing night. Albion are the top side in the country and are unbeaten for 17 games, a club record. An entertaining match swings one way then the other with chances galore. Green grabs the equaliser and almost wins it.
Hagan and Coop were both reported as wearing the number 2 shirt
