Crap FA cup quiz

[Eric the Half a Bee]

Here we go again, it's the thrill and joy of the FA cup again, so here's a completely meaningless quiz for you to have a go at.

1. Have we won or lost more games in the FA cup?

2. Which two City managers have the highest win percentages with us in the FA cup?

3. Which four City managers have a record of played 1, lost 1 in the FA cup?

4. Which City manager has won more FA cup ties - Dave Jones or Frankie Burrows?

5. Against which three sides have we played most often in the FA cup (currently two in Prem, one in Champ)?

6. While we've beaten Leeds on 4 occasions, there are six sides that we've beaten in the FA cup on 3 occasions. Oldham (P3W3), Orient & Southampton (P4W3D1) and Leicester (P4W3L1) are our best records, but which two other sides have we beaten 3 times?

7. Other than Swansea City, which other two Welsh sides have we faced in the FA cup?

8. What is our largest FA cup win?

9. What is our largest FA cup defeat?

10. Have we won or lost more cup replays (eventually)?

Indeed, as surprising as it is. The other is another unexpected from the 90s.

1. Have we won or lost more games in the FA cup?

Well as you can only lose one a season, but win quite a few (if you’re lucky) I reckon we’ve won more than we’ve lost?

3. Which four City managers have a record of played 1, lost 1 in the FA cup?

Any of our recent crap managers? Mick, Morison, Harris?


PS
Your quizzes are always much appreciated.

1. Yes, won more, but 101 to 97 defeats.

3. Only 1, and none of those you mentioned.

Thanks, appreciate the comment.

2 Kenny Hibbitt? We had a run to the 4th round in 98, I think.

3 Dean Whitehead was one of them. Yorath and Osman too?

I’ll go for Burrows.

Frank O’Farrell had a played one, lost one record in the FA Cup I think.

I’d say Arsenal could well be one of the answers to question 5.

We had runs to the Fourth Round (as a Third Division club) and Fifth Round under Jimmy Andrew’s so I’ll try him as one of the two managers with the best win percentage.

We did, but not under Hibbitt.

3. Whitehead is correct.

4. Correct.

3. O'Farrell is right.

Not Andrews. The answer has already been wrongly given to a different question.
