COVENTRY CITY 0 EXETER CITY 0.
Saturday, April 23rd 1927,
at Coventry.

This game bore obvious traces of the approaching end of the season, and was lacking in variety and speed. Both defences easily coped with the respective attacks, and Exeter were particularly well served by Lowton and Charlton. And the spoiling work of Ditchburn and Pool rendered the side good service. Among the forwards, the outstanding figure was Compton, but Lievesley was a poor leader. Exeter were the superior side after the interval, although Coventry played better then than they had done in the first half.

Coventry City:- Newton; Fergus, Randle; Brown, lure, Gardiner; Crisp, Heathcote, Bird, Breslin, Lavender.

Exeter City:- Bailey; Lowton, Charlton; Ditchburn, Pool, Miller; Purcell, Mc De vitt, Lievesley, Dent, Compton.

Referee: Mr A.J.Attwood, of Newport.
