Cupsets

Following Bradford beating Arsenal last night, there has been a lot of talk today about the greatest cup upsets?
I'm sure most of us would mention City beating Leeds in any conversation about "cupsets", but where do you feel this ranks along with the greatest?

P.S remember when Cardiff beating Leeds was thought of as unlikely :lol:

Wrexham beating Arsenal 2-1 was a big upset.

Funny thing considering they were both in the same division, but one of the biggest upsets I remember was Wimbledon winning the trophy against Liverpool, oh, and Coventry beating Spurs in the final was a shock too.

I was thinking Wrexham V. Arsenal.

Wimbledon and Coventry in the FA Cup Finals were big as well.

Strangely (at the time) I did not realise how big a win against Weeds in the FA Cup was.
Looking back, at their team, I seem to appreciate it more now.
