Have we ever been knocked out of the FA Cup by the team that went on to win it? on 23:05 - Feb 10 with 659 views | pwrightsknees | I went to both matches. Jeff Astle dived for their penalty and the ref disallowed a perfectly good U's goal in the first match. Uniquely, although Astle didn't score at Layer Road (he didn't take the penalty), he did score a couple at the Hawthorns. He is, as far as I'm aware, the only player to score in every round of the FA Cup (from the 3rd round, of course). | | | |

And, I believe, that was the season the Jeff Astle scored 3 hat-tricks in 8 days. Never before or since has it happened in the top flight. I leave you googly/techy people to do the research. | | | |

Very cool. In 1872 the London Wanderers, also known as Forest in 1859, won the first FA Cup. Derby County were formed in 1884, and truly I need to post my Rams 1984 scarf. Just for the 'ek of it. I have a priceless 1984 Centenary scarf. Happy said he'd fly over and kill me if he ever saw it on eBay Look, I have a classic Colchester United scarf... I'll try to change my avatar to my original one of a kind Muppet with the scarf as my avatar. She is a Henson Muppet named "Petra" and I have her. She was a Christmas gift a few years ago -- a few of you know from who... | |
