Coventry City 12th | Newport County 24th (24)

Andy Bowman missed penalty, hit the post, 13 minutes.

Newport’s lowest crowd of the season see City make it three wins in four for Hill on a grassless pitch. Bowman hits the post with an early penalty after Curtis’ foul on Walsh. City are on top until Robertson’s goal, then it is all County until Grice breaks away and Dixon heads home.
