Arsenal 4th | Coventry City 19th (22)

Charlie Nicholas and Tony Woodcock are dropped after Arsenal’s Cup disaster at York City, and their replacements score both goals. It was sub Nicholas who sparks the Gunners after Pearce’s bent free-kick. City play well, but as Mackay says ‘Good performances don’t win things’.
