On a similar theme (was going to start a new thread but can't.) [so Minty has done it for him]

 

If we beat MKD will we also set a new record as the ONLY team ever to have played in ALL five domestic professional finals ?

 

FA Cup

League Cup

Charity Shield

Zenith Data Systems /Simod Whatever other names it had Cup

Johnstones Paint / LDV / Football League/ Whatever other names it had Trophy

 

Intriguing one that...

If you ignore the Charity Shield, then Luton come close:

 

FA Cup 1958/59

League Cup 1987/88 & 1988/89

Full Members Cup (Zenith Data Systems) 1987/88

League Trophy (Johnstones Paint) 2008/09

 

Edit: No other team has played in the finals of both the Full Members and League Trophy. So yes, if we beat Franchise FC, and if you include the Charity Shield, the Saints will indeed be the only team to have appeared in all five finals...

That was the Sunderland researcher actually, as Dannyboy said above...so :p

 

He added an extra 0 to 800k.

 

Yeah I figured it was a typo. I was always desperate to sell him when I started that game! (One of my favourite FM's...)
