Noel Cantwell game #
Tranmere Rovers 7th in Division Three | Coventry City 10th in Division One

Rovers have not lost for 21 games but City go close to winning. A howling wind spoils the game. Hunt craftily lays on Machin’s goal. Yardley is credited with a flick on Brodie’s free-kick but Glazier confirms later that Strong deflected it. Former City youth Brian Joy is in the home side.
