I was just looking around at past English Cup seasons and found this run from Coastal Spirit back in 2008

Won 8-3 vs 5th place in the Premier League
Won 4-0 vs 3rd place in Division 1 or 7th place in Division 2
Won 1-0 vs 1st place in Division 1
Lost 2-0 vs 2nd place in Premier League

In their first ever season, the 8-3 games was their 4th game as a club. They played in the Chatham Cup 1st round 4 weeks later and Coastal lost 2-1.

Waimak 4 FC Twenty 5

Great game up at the Kaiapoi turf between FC and Waimak. Early lead for the hosts who then went off the boil and let 4 goals slip before halftime, and another 1 early in the second half. 5-1 down then came back into it and scored from a couple of corners, got another goal but couldn't quite equalise.

Of the eight teams in the QFs, only three are in the Southern League... guaranteed at least one CPL/CCL team in the semis! How good is cup footy.
