Who is your FA Cup Giant-Killer this season?

Worcester City, Sheffield United and Bradford City are in the running for this season's FA Cup Ronnie Radford Giant-Killer Award. 

The trio of clubs all performed heroics this season to dump higher divisions sides out of the competition. 

And it's up to you, the fans, which team scoops the illustrious prize. 

Ronnie Radford Award

Ronnie Radford helped Hereford beat Newcastle in 1972

Launched in the 2010-11 season, The Ronnie Radford Award - named after the former Hereford United midfielder - honours the team which produces the biggest Cup upset during each campaign. 

Radford himself was a 'Giant-Killer' for the Bulls. His long-range goal against Newcastle United in 1972 helped bring about arguably The FA Cup’s most famous shock.

The spectacular goal on a mud-covered Edgar Street pitch – watched by the TV cameras and greeted with unbridled glee by 26-year-old rookie commentator John Motson – equalised Malcolm Macdonald’s opener for the Magpies. 

 It is a constant and wonderful reminder of the magic of The FA Cup. Ricky George then hit the winner to send Hereford into the Fourth Round. 

Previous winners of the Ronnie Radford Award are Crawley Town (2011), Swindon Town (2012), Luton Town (2013) and Sheffield United (2014). But will the Blades win it again, or will another club triumph? 

Here is the shortlist...

Coventry City 1-2 Worcester City

 

COVENTRY CITY 1-2 WORCESTER CITY - First Round
The Conference North team beat the League One outfit and previous FA Cup winners, three levels higher, away from home. 

QUEENS PARK RANGERS 0-3 SHEFFIELD UNITED - Third Round
The League One side knocked out Premier League QPR at Loftus Road in emphatic style.

Chelsea 2-4 Bradford City

 

CHELSEA 2-4 BRADFORD CITY - Fourth Round
League One Bantams came from two down to beat the Premier League leaders on their own patch. 


Voting is open until midnight on 17 May and the winning club will be presented with their award at this year's FA Cup Final.
