magic of the Cup?

Cambridge goalie also made a couple of decent saves. 2-2 would have been great!

Some great results today; out go Chelski and Manc Arabic, Spurs & Saints lost too.
If CamU can win replay then a european place could go to a not so big team.:thumbsup:

Bradford really are the specialist at giant killing, great results and this is why I love this tournament. Chelscum put out a pretty decent team too which makes it even more hilarious.

Amazing result to come back from 2-0 down!

It was great! Hopefully Brighton can put up a good show today.

This is why we all love the FA Cup .

What needs to be done (but won't) is to give the cup winners of each European country a place in the Champion's League.

Champion's league ONLY for the league champions (oddly enough) and the FA cup winners (or each country's equivalent).

If a club achieves the double, the respective runners-up have a play-off with no corporate tickets and all profits from ticket sales going to a fund for lower league clubs to improve facilities. (How that would be administered I have no idea).

I can dream....

Just watched the highlights from the Bradford game, what a great game and some good goals. Everyone said £178 million of Man United drew 0-0 at Cambridge but for Chelsea's team which probably cost around the same to lose 2-4 at Stamford Bridge is just embarrassing. Well done Bradford, cracking result and knocked Mourinho off his perch.

Bradfords 4th goal was one of real quality, wouldn't look out of place had Barca scored it

Jose apparently went into Bradford's dressing room after and congratulated every single one of them. His team of millionaires were shocking, mind you, I will never understand why he, and successive Chelsea managers, persist in picking Mikel - one of the worst players in the PL ever!

I'd expect that from most high profile managers. No doubt Sir Alex Ferguson did the same when we beat them, and on the subject of him I bet Mikel was the best bit of transfer business he did at United. Signed him but lost him but still got money for him and he turned out to be ****.

Not so much magic of the cup today but Brighton played well at times.
I understand Wet Spam did a giant killing at Bristol City.
AND more unbelievable Villa (ge) people score a whole two goals!

Couple of young blokes put a pound on and won a lovely £16,000 each.
