    from bbc sport live fa cup text...

    "If prizes were handed out for the worst pitch in British football, Charlton's The Valley would surely be taking home the trophy. The south-east London club have struggled with drainage problems all season, this tie already twice falling victim to the wet weather.

    BBC Radio Oxford's picture shows the current scene at a drenched Valley - although Charlton say referee Stephen Martin is happy with the slippery surface. So it is game on. Hope each kitman packed a few pairs of wellies in his bag..."

    at least we've won something!

    I can't believe that pitch. No way was it that bad against sheff wed or Brighton. Gonna really take it out of the players playing on that.

    What happened to Alfie Potter for them? He looked lively when he came on in the league cup fixture

    FFS. Change the title eh - at least til after the game?

    Charlton fans - losing their bottle since 1905.

    No?

    Must just be me not wanting to constantly run the club down then.

    Heard that Churchy is ready to run himself into the ground.

    Shouldn't take him long, he'll just need to jump up and down a couple of times and he'll be waist deep!

    It's ok lads just been confirmed on the official shite, it's a centenary tribute to WW1 and the horror of the trenches. CAFC, ground breakers, innovators and just a little bit shit in the Cup!

    googling mud wrestling certainly delivers some interesting results - can't help thinking we've missed an opportunity to deliver some quality HT entertainment in the centre circle...

    Raynes playing for Oxford. That could cause the pitch to be waterlogged.

    Let's hope God is on our side.
