The Somerset side had taken a 2-goal lead going in to the break after Bowditch and Huntingdon netted in the 9th and 15th minutes respectively. That's as good as it got the visitors as Arfield (49th min), a McCombe brace (66th and 68th mins) and a penalty from Roberts (75th min) ensured that the points remained up north. Huddersfield Town 1st, Yeovil Town 17th. Peterborough United had to be content with a point on the road as they had to come from behind against Exeter City at St James's Park. Archibald-Henville had given Posh the lead when he put past his own keeper in the 29th minute.
