Not good at all. Some great games today in the FA Cup with a few cup sets yet we got City/Stoke and now Utd/Fulham. Four prem teams..

Not even a yellow.
Good one Howard.
The most recent example of a non-league team beating top-flight opposition was Sutton United's victory over Coventry City in 1988–89.
The last time a non-league side beat top-flight opposition away from home was Altrincham's victory over Birmingham City at St. Andrew's in 1985–86.
No non-league team has progressed past the fifth round since the second world war, this occurring most recently to Crawley Town F.C. in 2011
Really surprised to note Luton is now a non-league team. IIRC, they used to be regulars in the old Div.1 in the 1980s and won the League Cup by beating Arsenal in 1988.
