This question came up at a pub quiz I took part in and I cannot remember the answer. It was something small though. <grr>

All yours Andy - were you up researching that until three in the morning? :emoticon-0118-yawn:

We've only ever played them once. They knocked us out of the FA Cup 3-2 when we went to their place. Their next draw in the cup took them to Highbury where they drew 2-2. They were in the Southern League at the time so these were big results. They lost the replay to Arsenal 1–2 at their home ground.
You'd be forgiven for thinking it was Crystal Palace. Why?
