Farnborough were unable to cause possibly the biggest shock in F.A. Cup history when they travelled to Highbury to play Arsenal. Instead a second string Arsenal eleven took the game comfortably 5-1 with Rocky Baptiste getting the glory for 'Boro.
Gillingham, lead by an inspirational Andy Hessenthaler came back from from a goal down to earn a deserved replay with Leeds at Elland Road. Mark Viduka saw red in that game for a disgusting elbow on the hard working player-manager.

Millwall almost came up with a Cup shock when they took the lead at St Mary's. 36 year-old Steve Claridge was first to react in the Saints box. However Kevin Davies equalished to force a reply. Davies had been on loan at the New Den earlier in the season.
Watford got the other upset. They beat West Brom 1-0, who fell at the JJB in the Worthington Cup earlier in the season.

Meanwhile after suffering our first defeat in 21 league games at the hands of Swindon Town, the Latics could take comfort from the fact that only Crewe took advantage and closed up some ground.
Cardiff City lost 1-0 to then, bottom club Huddersfield. Andy Booth got the goal in the 80th minute. A huge victory for the Terriers and a massive defeat for struggling Cardiff.
In the game of the day in division two Oldham lost to Crewe. Fitz Hall saw a some-what suspicious red card, before Crewe took the game 3-1 to close the gap behind ourselves to nine points.

Here's to beating Mansfield.
