But what is notable about this period is that most of the finalists outside the group have then been relegated within the next 2 years (with some in the same season)! This was the case for the three that actually won the Cup (Leicester City, Portsmouth and Wigan Athletic) and five who were runners-up (Aston Villa, Hull City, Southampton, Watford and Millwall.

Might there be a curse on such clubs that reach the FA Cup Final?

1/2 #fooball #facup #premiereleague #statistics

In the 23 seasons since the millennium, the FA Cup Final has been dominated by five teams: Arsenal appeared 8 times, Chelsea 10, Liverpool 4, Manchester City 4 and Manchester United 6. This means that 32 (70%) of the 46 finalists were from this group, with 10 (43%) finals being between two of them. All other clubs only appeared once, with the exception of Portsmouth.

AFC Croydon bringing #NicheFootball to the masses. #FACup #NonLeague #Football #MastodonFC ⚽️

N is showing symptoms too now, so we've cleared the weekend plans for #NonLeague #football and/or #cricket. Looking to 19th August now, which will either be #Kent Cricket League Championship at #Bromley, or a local #FACup tie. #MastodonFC #NicheFootball ⚽️🏏

Not sure what to put for next game now. N and I are a bit tired, we think it's still a hangover from the Oval Test, so we're unlikely to get to an #FACup replay in midweek. #Kent #Cricket League Championship is still the priority at weekends, weather permitting, so that will probably be my placeholder for now.

Finally arrived at AFC Croydon Athletic v Sutton Athletic in the #FACup Extra Preliminary Round. Probably outside my #SouthEastLondon comfort zone, technically speaking. The new owners have naturally created a buzz, there's TV cameras in the clubhouse, the enamel badges have sold out, but as yet there's no sign of Zaha or Stormzy. #NonLeague #Football #MastodonFC #NicheFootball ⚽️

Only just learned Erith Town has moved in with SC Thamesmead. Might just bring them in scope for the Tuesday #FACup replay. #NonLeague #SouthEastLondon #football #MastodonFC ⚽️

Decided to skip the #Kent One Day Cup game at #Beckenham tomorrow in favour of N's first trip to AFC Croydon Athletic for their #FACup game against Sutton Athletic. #football #MastodonFC #NonLeague #SouthEastLondon #NicheFootball ⚽️

Erith Town or Fisher are the #FACup replay options midweek so far. #SouthEastLondon #football #MastodonFC ⚽️

Latest Nottingham Forest transfer news as the Reds are reportedly in talks over a move to sign former Leicester City goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel from OGC Nice #NFFC #NottinghamForesttransfernews #Transferdeadlineday #NottinghamForestFC #FACup #Sky

Holmesdale lost 1-2 to a worldie on the stroke of half time. The #FACup over for another year. #NonLeague #SouthEastLondon #football #MastodonFC ⚽️

Can see this one getting abandoned tbh. 😳⚽️ #FACup #SouthEastLondon #football #MastodonFC

The magic of the #FACup! Extra Preliminary Round, Holmesdale v Midhurst & Easebourne. #NonLeague #Football #SouthEastLondon #MastodonFC ⚽️

The rain seems to have eased, so we're likely to take a chance on Holmesdale v Midhurst & Easebourne in the #FACup. Final decision at 1.30pm. #NonLeague #SouthEastLondon #football #NicheFootball #MastodonFC ⚽️

Think we'd get soaked just walking to the bus stop today. Hoping the #FACup game gets put back to Tuesday for a waterlogged pitch. Unlikely we'll go in this weather. #NonLeague #Football #MastodonFC #SouthEastLondon ⚽️

I’m happy to see my old home team Bury FC back in action in the FA Cup tomorrow - a tournament the club have won twice before, though back in the early 1900s 😂

I didn’t think Bury would ever play again, and especially not at Gigg Lane. It’s a really credit to the dedicated fans who’ve supported the resurrection. It’s a result whatever the score line. #MastodonFC #FACup

The weather forecast for tomorrow is now so grim, I'm not sure the #football will go ahead, let alone the #cricket. #NonLeague #FACup #MastodonFC ⚽️
