I thought Newey was a decent fullback although tends to make a few mistakes but I don't know what other fans have said when at his former clubs.

Can anyone remember if we've had many scalps in the FA Cup?
I can't think of many wins against higher opposition the ones I seem to remember have been in the league cup\carling cup\rumbelows cup.

Our FA Cup record had been pretty miserable for years, but we beat 2 League 2 teams last year. We also beat Port Vale (also league 2) in 2011/12 and Carlisle (league 1 when we were league 2) in 2007/08.

88/89 when we beat Middlesborough at Ayresome Park when we were 4th bottom of Division 4 and they were top half of Division 1. We then beat Division 3 Reading in a replay before bowing out to Wimbledon. The 3-0 replay win over West Ham in 95/96 when Laws and Bonetti shook hands on the pitch. We then drew with Chelsea before losing at Stamford Bridge. 97/98 when we beat top flight Norwich 3-0 at home before losing at Leeds. Not really done much since then though apart from last season.

From the link Les posted the West Ham game was the only one i seem to recall but I wasn't 100% sure it was in the FA CUP. We've had some good times and some good fixtures, Chelsea, Leeds, and of course the run leading up to Wimbledon with hundreds of harry haddocks.

And obviously our history of making 2 semi finals but that was a long time ago.

Our FA Cup record had been pretty miserable for years, but we beat 2 League 2 teams last year.
We also beat Port Vale (also league 2) in 2011/12 and Carlisle (league 1 when we were league 2) in 2007/08.
Going back a bit. We beat Norwich in 1997/98 when they were Championship and we were League 1. In 95 we mullered West Ham in a replay 3.0. Then who can forget the cup run of 88/89 and the humbling of Middlesbrough (and Reading who were in a higher league than us) but that's about as good as it gets over my 40 odd years. (We did beat Preston in 72/73 before losing to Coventry when they were Division 2 and we were Division 3 but hardly a "scalp") Edit:- Bloody Nora Les-quick off the mark!
