One Dutchman in FA Cup Finals…

March 10th, 2008 | By: Jan | 6 Comments »

At least one, that is… Barnsley – with Marciano Bruma – playes Cardiff City – with Jerrel Hasselbaink (ex-Chelsea) and Glenn Loovens (ex-Feyenoord). West Bromwich Albion plays Portsmouth. Only Portsmouth is an EPL team, the other three play in the Championship.

If one of the Championship teams wins, it would be the first time since 1980, when West Ham beat Arsenal.

Cardiff City won the cup already in 1927. This was the first and last time a non-English club won the FA CUp.

It’s the first time since 1995 (Everton won) that one of the Big Four won’t win the cup.

Popquiz: which Dutch players won the FA Cup?

Very good Goose. Arnold Muhren was the first Dutch player to ever win. Do we forget Ruud Gullit?
