The Sky Blues suffered defeat in the First Round of the FA Cup against Walsall at the Banks's Stadium.
City fell behind to an Andy Cook goal and then the home side's lead was doubled when Josh Ginnelly added a second.
Jonson Clarke-Harris pulled one back just before the half-time interval and then after the break, Luke Thomas drew the Sky Blues level with his second goal of the season.
However, with just under fifteen minutes remaining, Nicky Devlin added a third for the Saddlers, as they secured a 3-2 victory.
