Norwich away, after supposedly blowing our chance at home with a 0-0 draw, we went up there to get  hammered & won 2-0 thanks to two Bambi goals. Smiley

Mind you, the next round was of greater significance for the club for all the wrong reasons Sad

The best I can come up with that I've seen since 1989 is Fulham or Palace.

In that time we've lost to : Stevenage, Scum, Boston, Histon, Crawley

About time we had a cup run !

The 4-1 David Duke inspired win over Sheffield Wednesday in whatever year it was wasn't too bad.
 2004?

Also the I want to say 3-1 win over L1 Carlisle - believe it was Sturrocks first game in charge and Christian Roberts tore them apart and scored twice. 2006?

.

Taking 8,000 fans to White Hart Lane and being swindled out of a win by a terrible ref and a last minute goal by Gerry Armstrong in 78-79 after being 1-0 for ages and that following a great 0-0 draw at the CG in front of 28,000 fans in 79-80 season.

I used a mates Tottenham season ticket for that match and sat motionless when Armstrong scored the winner, the ball hitting him on the shin and ending in the back of the net.

One of my favourite FA Cup games was a defeat, we played superbly against a brilliant Leeds side and lost 2-0 at the CG, I believe it was 1970.

 I would have to agree that the Tottenham game was probably the most atmospheric game I have been to at County Ground because in those days the fans were caged in at the Town End and I remember that a load of Spurs fans got in and caused a few problems as soon as the whistle went to start the game.

I was also at the 5-0 v Fulham with Best, Moore etc one and only time I ever saw these guys play. Those were heady days indeed.

Arsenal games at the County Ground were always a bit special because of the size of the crowds. Happy memories

Great memories, thank you.

The Don scoring at the old Yeovil ground - might be wrong but wasn't it a rare header? Bestie running his socks off even though we were stuffing Fulham 5-0. The record crowd Arsenal tie in 72. I was with a mate, 6 ft 8 (if you went to Park you may remember him, teacher called Les Ayers) as we got to our 'spot' on the Shrivvy terrace a bloke said. '32,000 people to choose from and you have to stand in front of me'.

32,000 yeh, right. the security /gatemen must have made a fortune that day, reckon there were at least 3 or 4k more judging by how squashed we were.
