Newcastle United 22nd | Coventry City 5th (22)

Newcastle’s sixth defeat on the run, and their fans are getting restless. In a wind-spoiled match City soak up plenty of Newcastle pressure but always look in control and snatch their first win at St James’ since 1939. Jim Blyth’s long kick catches out Mahoney. Wallace lobs the winner.
