Is Crawley the first non league team to reach the 5th Round ? (Merged)

[West Hoathly Seagull]

If they get through to the 6th round they will be the first non-league club since the Second World War to do so!

Didn't Telford play Everton in that round in around 1986?

Thanx, sorry didn't see that 1st thread.

If you alter the question to which club played through the qualifying rounds to reach the Fifth Round, you can add the Albion in 1932-33 (if my memory is right).

Of course, Wanderers were a non-league club when they won the first FA Cup final, as the league system had not been invented.

Yep, some cracking early winners of the cup; Royal Engineers, Oxford University, Old Etonians, Clapham Rovers, Old Carthusians, Blackburn Olympic

Spurs were the last non-league winners

against Banbury Spencer (2-1)

Great name for a team sounds like a team Adrian Forbes-Hamilton or Lord Willoughby might play for.

Tottenham Hotspurs won the cup in 1901 as a non league club beating Sheffield United 3 - 1 after a 2-2 draw in the first game.

But didn't play in the 6th round to do so. In 1901, the quarter final was the 3rd round.
