Fifth Round replay - West Ham v Man Utd

[edit]

I've switched round the result of this match, as Soccerbase, RSSSF and FCHD all say West Ham won it 2-0. What's odd is that the FA's archive gives it as 2-0 to Man U, and also has "+" symbols next to both matches, like there should be a footnote there, but there isn't one. Just thought I'd mention it here in case there turns out to be more to it. — sjorford++ 11:22, 8 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Good spot - I've swapped round the bolding. With this sort of thing, there's usually a reason. It's possible that it's a deliferate mistale to prevent people blindly copying the results, or that it's just an honest mistake. If there's a "+" sign there, it could be that there's something lurking beneath, such as Man U winning but having murdered the referee, or something, and the game being awarded to West Ham.
