Bristol Rovers goalkeeper Jack Bonham thwarted Coventry City on several occasions to help earn his side a point in their battle to avoid relegation
Bristol Rovers moved three points clear of the relegation zone as they held out for a goalless draw to damage Coventry City's play-off hopes.
Rovers' on-loan goalkeeper Jack Bonham made a string of saves to thwart the Sky Blues but the visitors had chances to snatch the points late on.
Liam Sercombe and Tom Nichols were both denied by Coventry goalkeeper Lee Burge in a frantic finale.
A draw means City, in ninth, are eight points behind sixth-placed Doncaster.
While the two dropped points might have put paid to their promotion hopes, Coventry's entire Football League future still remains up in the air.
An EFL extraordinary general meeting looms on 25 April should the Sky Blues not be able to confirm a home ground for next season.
Mark Robins' men have not let the off-field problems distract them with a run of just two defeats in their past 11 games giving rise to hopes of a top-six finish.
But that looks beyond them after they failed to break down resolute Rovers and, in particular, Brentford loan stopper Bonham.
He denied Liam Kelly in the first half and foiled Luke Thomas, Tom Davies, Jordy Hiwula and Conor Chaplin in the second period.
Rovers, meanwhile, climb to 16th by virtue of the point and have a significantly better goal difference than all of their relegation rivals.
