And obviously our history of making 2 semi finals but that was a long time ago.
I think Big Chris and Barralad went to both!

Haha. I can remember being in the ponny during the 88 fa cup game vs Wolves. They had Steve Bull and Andy Mutch two lethal strikers although I think SB was injured. And the goal from Cockers atleast I think it was him. We scored after having a corner. Then again I could be just making it up lol.

Yeah, we beat Wolves (who were Top of Division 3 at the time) 1-0 and the goal was indeed scored direct from a corner by Cockers. We then beat Rotherham (who were Top of Division 4 at the time) 3-2 before we won at Ayresome Park.

We also beat Port Vale (also league 2) in 2011/12
The night Serge Makofo was a hero ! Good night that. After that I think we screwed it up v Salisbury at home in the 2nd round...

I'm going to say it - Newey wasn't that bad. We've certainly had loads worse in the past ten years.
?
Until reading this thread I never knew Neweys first name was Tom. Probably brainwashed over the years by the gent who sits behind me. Always thought his name was ' flipping' Newey! I felt he cost us lots of goal because he rarely stopped a cross, he always stood off then blamed the central defenders if/when we conceded. Not the tallest but had some reasonable games in the centre of defence where he was playing a lot for Oxford. He doesn't seemed to have played since the 5-1 defeat at Cambridge but don't know if that is after being dropped or injured

88/89 when we beat Middlesborough at Ayresome Park when we were 4th bottom of Division 4 and they were top half of Division 1. We then beat Division 3 Reading in a replay before bowing out to Wimbledon.
The 3-0 replay win over West Ham in 95/96 when Laws and Bonetti shook hands on the pitch. We then drew with Chelsea before losing at Stamford Bridge.
97/98 when we beat top flight Norwich 3-0 at home before losing at Leeds.
Not really done much since then though apart from last season.
I remember that game bit rough in the terraced side streets after the match, their manager a scot his name escapes me got sacked the next day
