2/2

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

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.

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 replay in midweek. 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 Extra Preliminary Round. Probably outside my 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. ⚽️

Only just learned Erith Town has moved in with SC Thamesmead. Might just bring them in scope for the Tuesday replay. ⚽️

Decided to skip the One Day Cup game at tomorrow in favour of N's first trip to AFC Croydon Athletic for their game against Sutton Athletic. ⚽️

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

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.
