no. every year a player from the lower leagues is signed on the back of a good cup performance and every year they become expensive bench warmers, granted its usually a premiership team buying a league 1/2 player but its kinda the same thing so i'd say no.

several times i have seen player and i have thought, hey they could do a good job at xyz, but it turns out that it was a good performance on the day or the cameras, larger crowds, visiting team manager, its the way the FA cup is as much as i love it it does this

1) He's probably on more at Salisbury than we could pay him.

2) He lives at the other end of the country.
