Southampton 1-2 Grimsby: Saints' woeful season gets even WORSE as they're dumped out of FA Cup by League Two minnows, with Gavan Holohan scoring two penalties

Gavan Holohan made sure something fishy went down on the south coast as Grimsby made FA Cup history.

He scored penalties either side of half time as the League Two underdogs sunk Premier League Southampton, who pulled one back through Duje Caleta-Car, in a true giant killing.

In doing so, they became the first team EVER to eliminate FIVE different teams from a higher division in the competition in one season.

That sent their huge travelling support, armed to the teeth with inflatable fish, into dreamland - and fired Paul Hurst's side into the quarter finals for the first time since 1939.
