Bradford on their way to FA Cup glory (apologies for low quality, only footage I could find)
Crewe Alexandra's time at the top of the English football tree was short lived but they did manage one successful defence, with an admirable 2-0 victory over West Bromwich Albion.
The FA Cup brought Premier League side Bradford City to Gresty Road. Bradford were struggling in the Premier League as many had predicted they would, so the FA Cup was a good distraction for Paul Jewell's men.
The Division One side kept the Bantams at bay for 53 minutes before eventually, Robbie Blake found a way through.
Crewe weren't giving up easily though as they forced an equaliser in the 75th minute through Colin Little.
It was all for ought though as veteran striker Dean Saunders came off the bench to score for Bradford, putting them through to the Fourth Round and more crucially, making Bradford City Champions of England for the first time.
