Can you believe this was 10 years ago?

West Ham's most recent FA Cup final appearance, ruined by this injury-time stunner from Steven Gerrard and the subsequent penalty shootout that the Reds won.

One more tie from yesterday to quickly recap. And it is not one that Leeds defender Scott Wootton will want to read about again...

Watford reached the FA Cup quarter-finals for the first time since 2007 after Wootton's comedy own goal gifted them victory against the Championship side.

The visiting defender miscued an attempted clearance into his own net shortly after the interval.

"He's in tears, he's apologised to every member of staff and he'll not sleep for days," said Whites boss Steve Evans afterwards.

I'm sure Everton's players would have been going to the Middle East even if they had been beaten at Bournemouth, so we can't really call it a reward for reaching the last eight.

Dubai eh? Whatever happened to circuit training in Stanley Park...

Everton have not won a sausage since Paul Rideout's header claimed the 1995 FA Cup for the Toffees. 

Is this finally going to be their year? Roberto Martinez was typically cautious in his post-match interview...

"We will take it step by step. It was important that we showed we can adapt to this game, now we want to get a really good period in the league," said the Spaniard.

"The League Cup semi-final gave us an inspiration to want to be at Wembley every chance we can. Clearly the group is hungry for that kind of occasion."

Fielding a weakened side for the FA Cup? Nah, not for Everton boss Roberto Martinez. And it paid dividends for the man who led Wigan to 2013 FA Cup glory.

The Toffees reached the FA Cup quarter-finals for the fourth time in five seasons as strikes by Ross Barkley and Romelu Lukaku saw off Bournemouth.

But it could have turned out differently for the Cherries had Charlie Daniels converted his first-half penalty, which was superbly saved by Joel Robles.

There is no need to scrap FA Cup replays, Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger said on Friday. Be careful what you wish for Arsene...

Because the Gunners must now travel to Hull for a fifth-round replay after failing to turn dominance into victory against the Championship leaders yesterday.

Arsenal had two penalty claims denied and had chances to win the game through Theo Walcott and Danny Welbeck.

Hull keeper Eldin Jakupovic made a string of saves, most notably touching Joel Campbell's free-kick on to a post.
