FA Cup 2017 R5: An Imp & A Giraffe walk into a bar

So an uninspiring draw still managed to throw up a few unexpected results. Newcastle came a cropper to Oxford and did Liverpool against a pack of Golden Wolves. Watford losing to Milwall would probably also be classed as shock, except for the fact that they were awful. Until they stopped being awful - you're welcome. And as to the 2 non-league teams - booya - 5th round here we come!

Interesting fact: Sutton also have a related satellite team inspired by them abroad. I knew Arsenal did and I'm sure other clubs do - but Sutton must be the smallest club ever to have this. The Gambia, if anyone cares. Home of the Argos President.

Spurs managed to avoid being the unwanted shock of the round by the skin of a hen (standing on a beach ball)'s tooth. Chelsea had their usual routine home win against a lower league side. Nowt else to mention other than football's first Saltbae themed celebration. The 21st century amiright...
