On this day in 1959 Billy Bingham fired Luton to their only FA Cup final appearance.

The Northern Ireland international crashed a shot through a crowded penalty area to sink Third Division Norwich 1-0 in the semi-final replay at St Andrew’s.

In the final at Wembley Bingham’s corner set up Dave Pacey to score, but the Hatters were beaten 2-1 by Nottingham Forest.

FourFourTwo was launched in 1994 on the back of a World Cup that England hadn’t even qualified for. It was an act of madness… but it somehow worked out. Our mission is to offer our intelligent, international audience access to the game’s biggest names, insightful analysis... and a bit of a giggle. We unashamedly love this game and we hope that our coverage reflects that.
