Peterborough United 8th | Coventry City 2nd (24)

A Posh record league crowd, including 12,000 from Coventry, see City’s promotion hopes dented in the rain. After a good start, with Newton hitting a post, City play second fiddle. Thompson scores a debut goal and Dougan’s goal is top class. With luck Posh could have scored more.
