Leeds Stuns ManUtd At Old Trafford
Leeds emerged from five years of hurt to inflict some pain of their own as Jermaine Beckford's first-half goal sent old enemies Manchester United crashing out of the FA Cup.
It is six years since Leeds' loyal supporters have made the trip to Old Trafford - and not since 1981 had they returned across the Pennines celebrating victory.
But in manager Simon Grayson they have a man with the club in his heart, and in Beckford they have a striker capable of shooting them to better things - should he stay.
When his 20th goal of the campaign trundled past Tomasz Kuszczak, you could just sense the hosts would not be saved - not even by the five minutes of stoppage time that must have shredded a few nerves before the final whistle.

Too soon to mention Grayson as a possible Ferguson successor at OT?
