OSG Prem: FA Cup Has More Surprises- Arsenal Out, Oldham Hanging Around

((HT: Fox Soccer/FA))

The HQ, these days, is enjoying watching live sporting events early on weekend mornings with all the soccer from across the pond...

We'll get to the early shock in a second, but League 1 mid-carder Oldham United has earned another replay with Everton after a late, late equalizer at home that wasn't without a bit of controversy...

Here's the equalizer with the answer...


But the larger surprise came from The Emirates where relegated Blackburn knocked off Arsenal 1-0 in Round 5...
Colin Kazim-Richards score in the 72nd minute gave the Gunners fans plenty of reason to boo when the game was over...


"I have said it for a while but it is about hard work, organisation and team effort. I thought the lads were fantastic," manager Michael Appleton said afterwards.

"We will enjoy that and then focus on Hull City in the league on Tuesday night. Matches like that have to be great for the confidence.

"The fans were great and I'm sure they will have a good night."

The HQ would agree on that one...
