Saturday, April 1st 1950.
BRIGHTON AND HOVE ALBION 0
EXETER CITY 0.


Inability to take their chances negatived Exeter City's approach work at Brighton, where they were superior to the home team in everything except finishing off their attacks. The "Seasiders" were fortunate to salvage a point in a match that was a replica of the Exeter v Bristol City encounter a week ago.
