    2. What is unique (so far) about Spurs first FA cup win in 1901?

    3. And whats so unique (so far) about WBA's win in 1931?

    Yep, right on all three. Spurs were in the third tier of football but it was officially non-league.

    I also think if Portsmouth win it this year they will be the only team to win and be relegated in the same year (could be wrong though).
