City fought hard to earn a point against a useful looking Barrow side. With grim determination they restricted Barrow to a lone goal and came back in the last 15 minutes to snatch an equaliser. The Barrow team dominated the play for three quarters of the game, every forward having a crack at the Exeter goal but they lacked a marksman, Jones made a truly magnificent save from Clark. Lowes put Barrow in front after 21 minutes from a narrow angle, from the first minute of the game to well into the second half the City goal was under bombardment, A torrential downpour sent both sides skidding about with little good football and it was rather against the run of play when City's unmarked centre forward Jenkins, headed the equaliser close to the end when the Barrow defenders failed to catch him offside. 

City's player/manager Wilson got through a tremendous amount of work, although at times some of his tackling was rugged, he has his name taken on one occasion. Carter was the pick of the attack which had little opportunity to get going throughout the game.

• The City Reserves won their last Western League home match of the season when they scored 5 goals to 4 against Welton Rovers.
• EXETER CITY RESERVES 5. Lobbett; Turner, Foley; Tucker, Packer, Grant, P. Williams Dodd, Bennett, Scott, Irons.
