One point gained with only ten men for the whole of the second half at Bournemouth was pretty good going, City lost the services of outside right Simpson who was bundled into the railings and badly ripped his knee which required several stitches, City were unlucky in the first half when Iggledon hooked the ball past Godwin on to the far angle of upright and crossbar and then saw it drop a foot behind Rees, Iggledon again made a glorious attempt midway through the second half when he dashed forward to slide along the mud and hit the ball wide from only a few yardsThe dashing centre forward was once again City's best forward, with the whole defence playing well
