Had Oldham beating Fulham in my acca. Let down by Frank Lampard's... Missed out on 5 figures because of them. Other results came in after though.

Leicester result was the shock for me.

Has to be Barnet beating Sheff Utd - that's the biggest gap between league positions AND they won away.

For me Oldham... because they were away to prem team fielding a decent line up. ….. Barnet and Newport close though.

Little old Brighton scoring only 3 against Plucky Bournemouthe. I was shocked.

Pleased with the Newport result having been niggled by the tv pundits' particularly glib assumption pre match that Leicester would walk it. Just hope we don't get Newport in the next round, as I reckon they could do a Lincoln on us, they were very good.

It was only a few years ago they knocked us out of the League Cup at the Amex.

Oldham and Barnet are dead heats - both winning away from home. Gillingham vs Cardiff (R) is an upset, but not a shock. Huddersfield (R) will be toward the bottom end of the Championship next season so them losing at a good Bristol City team is standard and not even an upset. Newport beating a Leicester team not too interested isn't too much of a shock either, but definitely an upset.
