	Leatherhead FC - Official Site
		Their reputation was enhanced when they reached the Quarter-Final of the FA Amateur Cup in 1965-66, losing to eventual winners Wealdstone.
		Further FA Cup victories against a Ron Atkinson managed Cambridge United in 1975 and Pat Crerand's Northampton Town in 1976 cemented Leatherhead’s reputation as a giant killer.
		That season also saw Leatherhead were also losing finalists in the Isthmian League Cup and reach the First Round of the FA Cup for a fourth time, but were beaten by Swansea City.

	A short history of Wimbledon Football Club
		In 1935, Wimbledon reached the FA Amateur Cup final for the first time but lost 1-2 to Bishop Auckland in a replay at Stamford Bridge.

	Fever Pitch Glossary
		At the time their greatest FA Cup achievement was to get to the 1927 semi-final, so the lure of the glamorous and easily accessible London clubs just a short trip down the A4 was too much.
		Their finest hour was an FA cup victory over Manchester United in 1976 while being in the second division.
		The club hasn't seen much success in recent years (they last won the FA Cup in 1980) but they have a solid base of support and a reputation for stability in that they have only had eight or so bosses in their 100 year-plus history.

	Kevin Keegan
		In 1977, Keegan was instrumental in Liverpool's charge towards an unprecedented "treble" of League championship, FA Cup and European Cup, though he rocked the boat midway through the season when he announced his intention to leave in the summer to try his luck on foreign soil.
		For somebody who, as an impressionable 16-year-old, was told that he was too small to be a footballer, the lure of a possible call-up for World Cup duty should act as good a spur as is humanly possible.
		A former England national football teamEngland international manager and player, he decided to retire after leaving FA Premier League side Manchester City F.C. as club manager on March 10 2005/.

		An FA Cup final appearance in 1976, and a win in 1977 against archrivals Liverpool, made it clear that Manchester United was back in form.
		After Chelsea had been pressured by the League not to compete in Europe, United won the backing of the FA and became the first English club to compete in European competition.
		United scraped home in first for a League Championship win on goal average, and won again in 1966-67 with Bobby Charlton a hero in all of England after his key role in winning the 1966 World Cup.

		Boro, winners of the Anglo-Scottish Cup in 1976 and runners-up in the Zenith Data Systems Cup in 1990 had now progressed to the final of the Carling Cup.
		Anyway, it's not the FA Cup, which may or may not be called the Axa Cup by now, because that's where Arsenal beat Boro.
		The Cup did acquire some glamour and honour in the 1960s, because of the introduction of the Cup Winners' Cup, but there have been few moments people really remember.

		Southampton, whose only FA Cup victory came in 1976, will be strongly fancied to see off cash-strapped Watford, despite Ray Lewington's side having beaten two Premier League sides already this season -- Sunderland and West Bromwich Albion.
		Since the Football League was founded in 1888-89, the final has been contested by at least one team from the top flight.

	David Edward Johnson - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Johnson picked up his first domestic honour with the League title and was selected as Keegan's striker partner for the FA Cup final at Wembley, but Liverpool lost 2-1 to Manchester United and Johnson made little impact to the extent that he was replaced by Ian Callaghan in the second half.
		He and Liverpool were chasing an historic "treble" of League championship, FA Cup and European Cup as the season drew to a thrilling close.
		Johnson did enough on a personal level to win a final title medal in 1982 - also winning the League Cup again after getting the substitute's shirt for the final - before he returned to Everton.

		As a player, Sammy McIlroy played in three FA Cup Finals...and he's expecting Stevanage Borough to treat their clash with Stockport on Saturday as a Cup Final in itself...
		As a player McIlroy suffered double heartbreak, in 1976 and 1979, as United made it all the way to the Twin Towers, before falling at the final hurdle on each occasion, 1-0 to Southampton and 3-2 to Arsenal respectively.
		Let's imagine that non-League Stevenage Borough were actually entertaining Northern Ireland in the FA Cup first round this weekend, the team that Sammy McIlroy managed prior to his appointment as coach of Stockport County last month.
