FA Cup Draw Trivia Question.

[Blackpool-rocks]

When were we in the draw for the 5th round of the FA Cup but we didn't win a match in that seasons FA Cup...?

 

[Blackpool-rocks]

I'll answer my own question then.
1963, during the brutal winter so many matches were postponed numerous times. Our 3rd round tie against Norwich was eventually played in March when other matches in later rounds had already been played. We drew at Norwich but lost the replay.
