Just been watching West Ham v Arsenal from 1983. And afterwards Bob Wilson, on an MOTD re-run, mentioned a Reading v Oxford FA Cup replay with the winners going to Chesterfield or Burnley.
Anyone recall the outcome?

We lost our 2nd rnd replay 0-3 at the Manor. We lost at home to Bishops Stortford the previous year. Great.

Bishops Stortford went on to draw with Middlesbrough, with goal scorer and Marvin Hagler lookalike Lyndon Lynch gaining a day on national fame.
the very first Reading game I saw in any form was the FA Cup match v Bognor Regis, the following year. The 6-2 win was picked for grainy tv coverage on Southern TV's local version of "The Big Match".
