I still get the FA cup up until the possibly the fifth round when at that stage most of the underdogs are out along with the romance .

I've seen some extremely poor season's rescued by the FA cup as Acido as alluded to in 1987 when we were rock bottom of the old second division going in to the new year .

Machin's mob in 1990 took us to the fifth round despite our league position and three titanic games against the Blunts .

The third round win at Leicester with 3k reds in the away end was just about one of the best atmospheres I've ever been part off .

The Plymouth fourth round tie in 94 is the stuff of legend at Home Park .

Again another bad league season but 2k followed us on a 600 mile round trip in that away end .

What a trip that was , we arrived at 7am on Saturday morning straight from the Friday night out and travelled through the night .

Gerry Taggart with a late equaliser to earn a replay right in front of us .

Christ I'd die supping like that today .

Great memories though .

That's what the FA cup is all about , memories .

I've seen us in every round bar the final , that's perhaps another story mind .
