Lower rivals knocked out their giants.Rotherham beat Sheffield Wednesday 2-1 and Preston left it late to beat Blackpool.
Another shock was Morecambe's win at the Globe Arena against Kenny Jackett's Wolves.Ryan Williams scored a free kick after 84 minutes.
Goals from Richard Hinds and Shaun Harrad's spot kick helped Bury in a 3-2 win over League One Crewe at Gigg Lane whilst two extra-time goals saw Cheltenham beat Crawley 4-3 in Gloucestershire.
The other shocks were Stevenage's win at home to Ipswich thanks to Jordan Burrow's goals and Accrington coming back to knock out promotion chasing Middlesbrough.
