Riteo.

I remember this as though it was yesterday, but I cant remember the team !

There was a lower league (division 2 maybe?) team, played 1 or 2 premiership teams and won, IIRC one of the games was against Leicester ... think it was in the 1/4 final....

Only thing I remember that really stood out was their total lack of forwards, infact, I remember they had to get a forward by advertising on teletext (according to MOTD) now.. the forward they ended up getting was from a scandinavian country iirc, and scored in the FA cup fixture....

Now, what the hell was the name of this team ! im pretty sure its in the last 10 years... prolly last 7....

Eternally greatful if anyone could remember this !
 
I remember Exeter advertising for players.

[edit]It was Wycombe. You're thinking of Essandoh.

I was just trying to think of who it was that was advertising, remembered that it was Lawrie Sanchez :) He's got quite an FA Cup history now.
