Can only imagine the level of banter that must fly around among this esteemed group of intellectuals.
I can understand why we would think this is not funny but to be honest I think it is. I don't like being the bit of someone else's jokes but, frankly, it is funny.
We lauded it over them for years when roles were reversed so we have to suck it up now.
I just can't stop thinking about that game with Sheff Weds when one of them was going to be relegated back when they were, financially, on their knees. If they'd lost that game they'd be in the third or fourth division now. The whole administration and conning Selhurst out of the Bank owned by the taxpayers grates on me, but realistically (albeit with the luck of winning those playoffs) they have been well run since then and they are, for now, an established Premier League side and much, much stronger than us.
If anything it is flattering that they would bother to care about beating us, in a competition that they could well go on to win.
I blame Leon Clarke. Scored for Weds, kicked the advertising hoarding to celebrate and broke his toe. Wot a nob.

I remember that too well. Had the family round (all Charlton) to watch the game and celebrate...didn't happen. Jammy Nigels.
I'm amazed at the volume of comments, tweets etc from Millwall supporters that this game got, feel for them really, missing out on the action down in League One, strange because we're supposedly obsessed with them..
Nice to see the sensible posters admit we're bigger than you now, I know how quickly that can change so until we've been there 10 years I will just enjoy it whilst it lasts but all the shlt we had to endure am loving it, as for ruling the roost I recall you didn't sell your allocation when you were the away team

Our home attendances in the Prem were really good though. Our lineup on Wednesday was never going to compete - it was a very young team. Enjoy your current success while it lasts - Charlton will be back...eventually.

The spanners can't believe we've let another team play in their cup final.
