I've picked my ten most memorable FA Cup matches, controversially I had to leave out a couple. Intrigued to hear of any you think should have been in there, especially from some of the older supporters.

Getting dicked 6-1 by Crewe in 1992 with Mickey T seeing red, seemed to spark our amazing promotion run that season.

Worst nightmare, cost me a load of bets and ridicule.

I remember sneaking out way before the end (with hundreds more), climbing over the turnstiles as the main gates were locked.

I also loved the one where we played West Ham at home and instead of clearing the pitch of Snow , we just rolled the snow , so we basically played on a slightly soft ice rink ( got us the replay and then Rooster hit that absolute rocket to knock them out ) ... West Ham hated it .... It was brilliant !

Can't argue with any of them!

Personally Peterborough away was one of mine. Great game with 6 goals amd a brilliant atmosphere. It was made sweeter as I think we'd played there in the cup the season or so before and lost a dour game 1 nil? it was a great occasion topped only by Birmingham for me on that cup run (unfortunately I wasn't at West Ham away).

Beating Ipswich in the third round before we played United was also a very good game. They were either the Prem but we were fairly comfortable in that game, and Durkan scored a fabulous goal.

That was a pretty memorable tie mostly because of the weather! Orange ball. Martyn Chalk up against Julian Dicks! Great goal from , I want to say, Hugo Porfirio?
