Judging by the poll so far it's mainly young kids voting that don't remember the older games. I've gone for Sutton v Coventry. A proper part time non league team beating a team that had only won the competition a year earlier. Ours,although a fantastic achievement wasn't a massive shock.

Bradford scoring four stands out, but non league in the quarters means Lincoln for me.

"Almost managerless" Arsenal ? Wonder if Jim Harvey will apply ? After all, he's a former Gunner !

As an aside to this, could we end up being the first club to win more FA Cup games than league games in a season?

I'd say that was a certainty.

What do we reckon the least amount of teams is after our cup run has ended and the winners (I'm fairly certain I know the answer here).?

I.e. Knocked out by Lincoln who get knocked out by Arsenal who get beat by Chelsea in the final would equal 3 teams

86 we lost to York who lost to Liverpool who duly won it

95 we lost to spurs who lost to Everton who duly won it

In 1972/3 season we lost to Notts County, who were knocked out by Sunderland, who won it.
