Cup Shocks


Recommended Posts

cplpeters, you are right - there is nothing coming up under the search.

The thing is I know for a fact there have been dozens of threads on this subject.

If you think you are the first person to start a thread like this you are very much mistaken. That said, you are right to start a new one because the search function is awful on this forum.

No great upset to speak of, but I was Basingstoke Town on FM10 and got to the Third Round in my first season, had pretty easy draws though against BSS and BSP teams apart from Round 2 I beat League 2 side Macclesfield away 1-0! Then got Liverpool in the 3rd round and was taught a harsh lesson.......

There never seems to be any in AI matches, very rarely anyway - unlike IRL teams like Arsenal and Man Utd seem to still play their full strength squads for Carling Cup 4th round ties...

I am due to play Sheff Utd in the Final after they knocked a weakend, injury hit Man Utd team out at the Quarters and Chelsea at the Semi's...

Europa League here we come...I hope!

Despite my idiot fans being 'concerned' at the result. I thought it was the result of a lifetime to take my Level 9 village club to Old Trafford in the 3rd Round of the FA Cup and lose by 1-0. Mind you, the 4th round has just finished and Premiership leaders Man U got knocked out by Bournemouth.

I also managed a 1-1 draw in the second round, to take Swindon to a replay with my wrexham side, this after beating Argyle 2-1. Hoping to win the replay as a match against Premier League Nottingham Forest Away, awaits the winner :D

Best one I think I've done was with Barnet, I was somewhere in the top 6 in League 2 and faced Barnsley, a decent League 1 side in the FA Cup 2nd round and won it 3-1. I dont usually beat higher division opposition...

Best one against me has to be at Sheffield Wednesday in the Premier League away at Championship side Portsmouth, lost 5-1.
