i'm sure i know the most of the rest of them, but for the time being i'm only answering 10)
Sunderland and Villa are the names of the people who scored in the final, not the teams that won, so in 1996 it was Paul Rideout? (Everton v Manchester United)

(Everton v Manchester United) Only the answer is wrong on the above. Rideout got the winner in 1995 |

Only the answer is wrong on the above. Rideout got the winner in 1995 I realised after i logged off the internet but couldn't be arsed to come back online, Rideout scored the winner in the same year as my team won the League!!! Anyway, i've been doing some "research" and here are my answers! ;D 1) Manchester United (11) 2) Leeds beat Arsenal 1-0 in 1972 3) 6 went to a replay, 5 of the replays were at wembley the other 1 was at old trafford. 4) Aston Villa in 2000 5) Freddie Ljungberg for Arsenal in 2001 and 2002 (lost to Liverpool and beat Southampton) 6) 1985 7) The Wanderers beat The Royal Engineers 1-0 8) Portsmouth beat Wolves 4-1 in 1939 9) Bury beat Derby County 6-0 in the 1903 final, but 7 goals have been scored (between the teams) in the 1890 (Blackburn Rovers 6 - 1 Sheffield Wednesday) and 1953 (Blackpool 4 - 3 Bolton Wanderers) finals 10) And of course the question that i got right and wrong at the same time, Cantona got the winner in 1996, Sunderland and Villa were the names of the scorers in 1979 and 1981 |

Perfectly correct with one correction.
Freddie Ljungberg did score Arsenals goal when they lost to Liverpoolin 2001 but his goal the following year was in the 2-0 win over Chelsea.
Robert Pires scored the only goal against Southampton in 2003
