    Just doesn't seem same anymore? Thnk its because outside the prem there isn't much difference between the sides. Plus it's only classsed as a giant killing if you beat a premiership club , and half thetime they only field their second team! Sad but true! :'( :'( :'(

    Today just didn't feel like a cup game with meaning.

    I was just thinking that for the first time in a few years, teams seemed to be taking it more seriously this season. Looking at the Premier League teams and they have almost all fielded very strong teams with only the odd player rested.

    According to that Schmeichel bloke on MOTD......

    In the past 12 years only 4 different clubs have won the FA Cup. :eek: And those are the so-called 'big four'.
