Northampton Town 4th | Coventry City 3rd (24)

A draw is fair in the table-topping clash on a gluepot pitch. Barr, in for the injured Hale, hits the bar and Whitehouse’s goal-bound shot is deflected. Wesson saves the Cobblers’ best efforts in front of the biggest crowd of the season at the County Ground, and Curtis masters Large.
