So you are potentially one game from Wembley and you want a day out at Arsenal watching us getting spanked

Wigan at home please and let's do it the proper charlton way of losing when you get your hopes up
Bit a traditionalist myself. Personally the semi final should be played at two neutral league grounds with the final at Wembley. Takes the gloss of a final and people wonder why the competition is no longer taken seriously. So yes would rather have a quarter final day out with true fans rather than people jumping on the bandwagon.

Surely Arsenal away will be a day with people jumping on the bandwagon? Wigan Away will be a quarter final day out with true fans.

We'll be ball number 6 for the draw which follows the Everton match

Edit... I've already said that I wouldnt mind one of Brighton / Forest / Sheff Utd in the Quarter-Finals but wouldnt mind Everton... My Uncles support them so would be interesting in the family

Plus should all the ties from this Weekend end with a team winning and no replays being required does that mean there is a chance of BT Sport showing our 5th Round tie?

Might as well get really silly with this post because after 3.30pm might not get to say this for 10+years.

Hoping that one of Man city,Arsenal, Liverpool,Everton get to the final and we meet them.
We are 3 wins from being in the Europa league.

DELUDED THINKING AT THE HIGHEST ORDER.

Don't really fancy going to Wigan twice in a season. The other week was enough for me this season. Especially the walk back.

In the QF you want the easiest game possible

Why the hell would you want Arsenal away at that stage
It's a derby with a big allocation. Would you rather Wigan or Sunderland away if we beat Wednesday?
Yes, better chance of getting to Wembley.

Does it really count as a derby when one side will treat as any other game.
Does it count as a derby?? In all the years I have been going a "Derby" is a term for two local teams or within the same city that play each other.

Take your point and agree to a degree.

Just in city with loads of teams, some games mean more than others, and a lot of Arsenal don't care about playing us.

Why are we even having this conversation when we all know it's going to be Wigan away!?

If we'd played and won yesterday, I'd be hoping for Sheff Utd at home. Now I really hope we avoid them as it's just going to get Wednesday more fired up for the 5th round game.

Wigan at home, winnable and they will possibly have eyes on the play offs.

Or Sunderland, week after their League Cup final and they have a busy period of league games.
