I can think of two more recent managers who took the FA Cup seriously, despite their many obvious faults otherwise.


Neil Warnock's finest 90 minutes as Leeds boss was the 2-1 fourth round win over Spurs. We were then unlucky to get Man City away in the 5th round, when there was plenty of dross still in the competition we could have been drawn against instead.

And it's even worth mentioning Steve Evans, who got us past Rotherham and Bolton in the first two rounds. We may have gone out at Watford in the 5th round with an anaemic display, but at least we did so with pretty much a full strength team.

(Rejoins Roger in lurkdom).

Truly, truly awful. None of them seemed to give a flying f**k, and the
    half time substitutions were a joke surely.
None of our managers since Grayson have shown an ounce of respect for
    the FA Cup, and IMO that is an absolute disgrace.

That was truly dreadful. Casilla reminding people quite how bad he
      is.
      Thought this might be a chance for Costa to put in a bit of a
      performance and push for a first team place but no, he was
      anonymous.
      I think it's always tough on the u23s to chick them into a
disjointed team, but Casey looked awful. Jenkins didn't look great
      either but probably fairer to judge him in a more balanced team.
      Disappointed with Phillips, he just strolled through the game,
Hernandez's passing was way off, especially second half and I don't
      think any of the subs did much when they came on.
      I know the league is the priority but I was expecting better than
      that today.
      Let's hope this doesn't derail our season like some abject cup
      performances have in the past.

      I'm not wasting too much time writing about this match. For me 2
      things:
      1) worst result in the club's history
2) worst half-time substitution I've seen from a manager (any team)
      in over 49 years of watching footy.
      Well done Bielsa.
      Garbage.

      Yep, that was truly shit. About as bad as 4th division Colchester
      beating Revie's Leeds.

      Bamford, Klich, Meslier, Ayling & Dallas all came out of that one
      looking good.

Thinking a bit more about this - I know, I can't help myself - but those 4 outfield players (Bamford, Klich, Ayling & Dallas) are the
      runners of the team - its engine...we had no forward momentum
      yesterday - I guess it proves that the squad is thin and that we
can't have it both ways...they all needed a rest (I'm sure he would
      have rested Philips as well had he not been already booked in for
his rest, next game) but that is what happens when they're all off
      together.
