Arsenal and Cup shocks avoided. Just.

Thanks for tuning in as we range over a busy week of football, from the Thursday match against the top rated team in all of English football to four days later doing combat with the seventh best team in the National League North; from Champions League to the sixth tier of the English leagues.  And you know what?  They were both tough.  Different tough, but challenges all the same.  

In the studio with me to examine a pivotal week in this wonderful season is Greville Waterman.  We look back at a riveting match at the Gtech against Arsenal, one in which we left them happy to get a point as they lay stretched out on our pitch exhausted.  While we might have gladly taken a point before the match started, by the end it honestly felt like two points dropped!

And on to Macclesfield, who were up for a battle and gave us all we could handle.  In the end here it was job done and thank goodness we got out of there.  Could this be the year of a deep Cup run?
