Bradford and Middlesbrough upset the odds big time

The odds of Chelsea and Manchester City going out to lower division opposition in the FA Cup fourth round on Saturday was 285-1 but one punter foresaw one of the most astounding days in the competition's long history. The biggest shock was third tier Bradford City coming back from 2-0 down to beat Premier League leaders Chelsea 4-2 at Stamford Bridge while Championship Middlesbrough outplayed champions Manchester City in a 2-0 win at The Etihad. The odds on that double were 285-1, according to British bookmakers William Hill. "Over Christmas, the punters got more than one over on us, but today has seen some of the most unlikely results in the history of the FA Cup," said William Hill spokesman Joe Crilly.
