Chelsea - The Biggest Fa Cup Upset Ever?

[davetuc]

Well, wasn't that just hilarious? The Chavs 2-0 up at home, seemingly cruising along and then bang! 4-2 to Bradford! Got to be the biggest upset of all time? So much for all that talk of a quadruple! And with Spuds, Citeh, and Saints all going out as well, just a great day for the cup.

If you wait till after MOTD, it's not really NEWS is it? Well done Bradford. Grrrrr

[gness]

It's not just the score.....which is easily avoided....it's the pleasure of watching the match develop.........

Do it during the cricket and I'll be melting wax.....☺

[ummmm]

You don't have to wait until after MOTD. You put a *spoiler alert* in your title.

[Arksided]

To be fair it is in the football section... thank gawd there is no cricket section... 'Other' sports will do for them.

[ummmm]

That's why the title should be *spoiler alert* so it can't be seen in latest posts and MOTD fans will avoid it.

[corylus]

Bradford beat Chelsea, we'll never hear the last of this on local radio here in West Yorkshire, but does it really matter?

[Arksided]

Giving results away in a title is unfair.... but avoiding all media and going onto a Question and Answer site... just makes me laugh.

[davetuc]

Well said Arksided.

[Mamyalynne]

Go the jokes section , that will cure you.


When there has been so much discussion about spoilers over the years here,one wouldn't think you had to avoid the site.

Spoiler alert - next week's Corrie.

Emily is arrested for soliciting for immoral purposes.

Eccles bites Norris - the dog dies as a result.

Audrey says no to a G and T.

Surely the biggest upset in the FA Cup came about in Jan 1974. I had just returned to barracks from a 2 hour foot patrol, on this day all those years ago, and had gone to the cookhouse for my tea. What began as a murmur rose to a deafening roar, as over 100 squaddies gleefully sang 'Underground, overground, wombling free, the Wombles of Wimbledon Common are we.' As i was out doing my bit for Queen and country, the unthinkable had happened and the mighty Clarets had lost 1-0 at home to non-league Wimbledon. I still go cold at the thought.

OMG ... this is it !!!

This is our year !!

I can feel it in my water. Literally, coz I'm posting from the loo here coz my BF and a few of my pals are out there getting the flat ready for tomorrow. Was that TMI ? ... maybe ..

But anyway, yes ... I've got £20 on the Gulls to beat Arsenal tomorrow (I got 4/1) and then ... all the big teams are out.

This must be our year.

COME ON THE SEAGULLS !!!

[Ken4155]

You've lost before the game has even kicked off, jj. I've just looked on oddschecker and the LOWEST the seagulls are to win tomorrow are 5/1 - that's with Ladbrokes and Betway. They are best priced @ 6/1 in a number of places.

" all the big teams are out."

Er JJ Man Utd aren't quite out...yet.

[Svejk]

she said BIG teams;

[Gromit]

Svejk,
Are upu implying that the team that have won the most FACups are not a big team?

[Arksided]

Littlepool are still clingin' on in there. 0-0ops

[davetuc]

Everyone now banging on about the FA Cup final being on Stevie-Me's birthday and what a send-off it would be. Come on Bolton!

[Arksided]

Indeed! I'll be backing JJ's team tomorrow, little chance but the underdogs are taking advantage.

What an ungracious little git Mourinho is.When he was being interviwed aftet the game in final score he just spouted a load of nonsense,couldn't bring himself to congratulate Bradford.Too much to hope they don't win anything this season.
