FA CUP is still the best Cup comp in the world...

The best Football Cup competition in the world continues tonight. In recent years the bigger clubs have bemoaned the additional burden that a Cup run puts on a team. But in reality only the big Four consistently have a chance at the English Premiership and the chance for European cup. Come on the small guys....except Brighton vs my beloved Villa of course!
