Fulham losing to Oldham because for a minnow to go to the bigger team and win at their place is, IMHO, much more of an achievement than beating them at yours.

[Football] What was the biggest Third Round shock?
- Thread starter Bozza
- Start date
I've voted for Newport, if only for the fact it will put a smile on the [MENTION=6]Lord Bracknell[/MENTION] lips up there on his cloud.

Newport being Leicester is the biggest metaphysical shock, especially for those in South Wales with a bad hangover this morning.

I did think this.
Put the game to bed by getting to 3 or 4 nil. But there really is no need to humiliate the opposition... not like goal difference is a factor.
Use your subs to let the finge players have some time in the limelight, sit back a defend the lead.
Just not nice to sh!t on the opposition by getting 6 and THEN bringing out your top striker!

Pinocchio said he gave Kane 15 minutes to please the Tranmere fans who paid good money to see his stars play , fair doos .
Palace scoring

I might be biased but Barnet's win at Sheffield United yesterday was so special. I go to a lot of their games and their pace, passing and effort was incredible. The bad thing about their cup run is the likes of Craig Robson, Callum Reynolds, Dan Sweeney, Ephron Mason-Clark and Shaquile Coulthirst might be snapped up for peanuts by bigger clubs. What a day though and Bramall Lane is a beautiful ground, full of character.

4 days and 7 time zones I think this third round worked. But without the 'giant killings' it could so easily have flopped.

Driving back Saturday 5Live decided that Chelsea was the game we all wanted to listen to - Wrong.
During the Newport game the commentator spoke about a player who moved from Ireland to play in England for Newport. He said it twice in 30 seconds and no one picked him up on it.
