An important milestone ! (5 Viewers)

Today in one of the broadsheets I noticed this quote re the Macclesfield Palace match - maybe the ghost has finally gone ! With no mention of the team

“The result was statistically the biggest shock in Cup history. The previous biggest gap bridged by a team was 108 places.”

Sick to death of them constantly mentioning it at every FA cup game,

Hopefully this MAC win banishes it back a little

We are no longer the worst defeat in FA cup history! Sutton will die on the vine and commentators will be quoting Macclesfied v Palace absolutely brilliant!

You do know that we weren't the holders when Sutton beat us?

Is that to me? Obviously we weren't, read my post again. On about Palace.

By adding 'apparently' it seemed like you were questioning if it was correct!

 

[Skyblueabo1111]

I added "apparently", because it was reported in the match..Yet you posted " nope". Enlighten me? You were wrong, weren't you? Which others?

Thankfully no one brings up our 1958 defeat to Aldershot, a humbling 4-1
