Northampton Town 22nd | Coventry City 1st (22)

Dave Bowen’s Cobblers look doomed to another relegation. A wind-spoiled game evens the contest but City, cheered on by 8,000 fans, look the only winners. Mackin and Branston block goalbound shots and Harvey makes some good saves. City goal-less for only the second time.
