I'm aware that other teams have previously won the FA Cup/League Cup from that division but none that I'm aware of have done so in recent years.
Fair enough Adam.. it was a long long long 9 season since we won the cup and a painful 7 since we narrowly lost the final to Chelsea, but like they say no one remembers the losers..and god knows how long since Blackpool won the cup ..I wonder if you were excited by the games against the colosis that is Liverpool, or were you unmoved by their not so recent history of honours..unlike it seems the exciting possibility of seeing a big (recently) succesful club like Wigan at HP. Any way Good luck for next season, DA has built a good combative squad and got the best out players that we ..frankly..awful for us. I can see you challenging L2..
To be completely honest, I did genuinely forget that Portsmouth won the FA Cup. I don't mean that in a disrespectful way, but I did genuinely forget.
