In the years since the first ball hit the onion bag way back in 1872, the FA Cup has held a special place in the hearts of Englishย football fans right around the globe.

With every single club within the top nine levels of the Englishย Footballย League System eligible for the knock-out tournament, teams without two pennies to rub together are afforded the right to dream of romantic upsets over the big boys in the 'prem.
