Barnsley
Portsmouth
Middlesbrough
Cardiff/Bristol Rovers

Of course if the clubs fail to then many members of the public might fancy a chance of getting to Wembley, but then consider the prices of the tickets that may be left for general sale may be Â£50 upward

Will the Cup sell out this year?

Very hard to say but I think they will. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for many fans of these clubs. At least we'll have some proper football and atmosphere for this year's final

The last one not to sell out was of course us v Sheffield Wednesday in 1993.

That IS a very good point.

But I hope the cynics will be confounded and it WILL sell out.

Let's face it, it's hard to keep recycling the "magic of theCup" argument when Arse,Mancs,Chavs,'pool keep making the final.

So much better this year. And yes I am aware of what I'm saying. But it is SO much better. If football becomes a monopoly/cartel it will wither and die.

All credit to todays winners.

Last sides outside top four to win the FA Cup:

1988 Wimbledon
1991 Tottenham Hotspur
1995 Everton

It is nice for small clubs to get a day out anyway (unless they are the lot from down the road)

Afraid so.

For England v Israel it was Â£50 for the lower tiers, Â£30 for the upper tier.

The cheapest will go quickest, so what's left over will be the most expensive tickets.
