It's a big club. But it's not Arsenal. They were drawn away in every round in their 1970/71 Double-winning campaign, but played replays against Portsmouth (3rd round) and Leicester City (6th round) at Highbury.
 
it was a guess... so here's what google has to say:

"In 1990 they won the FA Cup, beating Nottingham Forest, Hereford, Newcastle and Sheffield United away from home. They then took two matches to see off Oldham and Crystal Palace in the semi-final and final. Both matches were, of course, played on neutral grounds. Of the teams United played, only Forest and Palace were in the top flight."
 
Correct. The City Ground, Edgar Street, St James' Park, Bramall Lane, Maine Road (twice) and Wembley (twice). Except for the two draws, all by single-goal margins. The Cup triumph saved Alex Ferguson's managerial tenure at Manchester United, and he went on to become the fully-fledged tyrant we know today.
