Shrewsbury Town 5th | Coventry City 1st (24)

Luck deserts the Shrews again in a match they dominate. Injury-hit Sky Blues have to defend all night as Arthur Rowley’s team seek revenge. Rowley himself hits a post and Middleton has a ‘goal’ ruled out, but Wesson holds firm. 3,000 City fans brave the wet to cheer their heroes.
