Brought 6 of my mates to Stevenage who aren't Charlton fans and loved it. They are already asking me to get tickets. Decent draw, I'm up for it!9

Can I be the first to ask, when did we last play a first team fixture on a Thursday?0

Wasn’t the FA cup game at Blackburn a Thursday0

Played Middlesbrough in the FA Cup on a Thursday in 2006. Played a League game at Bradford on May 1st, 1997 - oddly, I wasn’t there for that one. Can’t think why. 😉LargeAddick said:Can I be the first to ask, when did we last play a first team fixture on a Thursday?
Also various holiday fixtures.2 -
Think we played Luton away on a Thursday replay before we got Spurs in the cup 2011ishAirman Brown said:

I’d expect you to remember the occasional triumph 😀Airman Brown said:

Well a lot of people got what they wanted a top 6 premeirship side. Unfortunately that will be the end of the cup run. We are not going to beat one of the best sides in tge premeirship.0

Yeah. A lot of people are going to be sorry. We could potentially have got to the next round if only we'd got Lincoln or Gillingham and had managed to beat them. Then we could have lost a few weeks later instead.msomerton said:Well a lot of people got what they wanted a top 6 premeirship side. Unfortunately that will be the end of the cup run.

We did well enough to get PL opposition.3 -
Good draw and one we will have half a chance!

Really hope it's sensible pricing.0

Brighton took almost 7k to Arsenal the other night, with adult tickets priced at 20 quid upper tier and 10 in the lower tier.
If the demand is there from them i wonder whether we'd give them some of the East stand?1 -
Covered end and Callum how can you be surprised at constant negativity when we’re going through the worst footballing period in our history
we’ve never had 4 consecutive league seasons on the spin in the third tier since we first got promoted out of it in 1929 we’re odds on for that to happen
it’s our ninth season in 14 in the third tier, in the previous 67 seasons we had 4 seasons in the third tier
yes we’ve had a bit of a league cup run , I for one would have wanted weak opposition at The Valley to go further
of course punters aren’t gonna be pulling themselves everywhere about stuff and a moan for the sake of it can become boring but wanking ourselves off when ninth in the third tier is never gonna happen , especially when you look at how our nearest and dearest have performed in recent years
if we were peppering the top two automatics with light clearly visible at the end of the tunnel then yes I’d understand the frustration of your good selves with the moan ups but realistically im not convinced we’ll be out of here this season or next .
We’ll be buzzing if we have orient in this division next year at least then we’ll have a local match to look forward to , woohoo10 -
Nice journey for the Bournemouth fans the midweek before christmas.Callumcafc said:Newcastle v Bournemouth1 -
Pleased that Man City have drawn Liverpool ... we'll only need to face one of them.3

NO. Price it sensibly and try and fill the ground with Charlton fans. We know we can make a noise that can impact the game. We did it with less fans against Ipswich at 2-0 down. Despite the fact they are in the PL and we are L1, they won’t have been playing competitive matches as a team and we will have. We will have that edge. Somebody on this thread earlier thought the fact that their players will have been resting and ours haven’t would be to their advantage. It won’t. More likely it will mean one or two if their players will actually hurt themselves on the night if the tempo and atmosphere is ramped up and they try and go with it.Chris_from_Sidcup said:Brighton took almost 7k to Arsenal the other night, with adult tickets priced at 20 quid upper tier and 10 in the lower tier.

I reckon if we pay each fan £10 per person to attend we may fill the ground with Charlton fans , may have to make it £20 because it’s Christmas .
You know it makes sense Thomas , you can do this
let’s make it happen1 -
We gotta do this for London - play to the sound of the trumpets as big ron would say !!!😂1

The timing for this game really makes it interesting for us and gives us a real bit of a leveller. They will not have played a competitive fixture in a month and will be treating it as a final competitive friendly to get the players back in shape before the league.
This could of course go one of two ways. Either we catch them cold by being match sharp and then we make a real game of it. Or their fresh legs will carry them through.
We're at home to a current top six premier league team who play excellent football and because of a few circumstances we have a chance. Hopefully one of Leaburn and O'Connell may be back to add a bit of class to our front and back line.
A really interesting match up.3 -
£20 adults and £5 kids (school holidays) and I think we get a decent crowd, anymore and I'm not so sure2
-
I must admit last night I saw it as a shit tie, but was a bit deluded. They beat Arsenal away so they are a decent side. Thomas does have to reduce ticket prices though and if we get a few people turning up for their first game we might get some new fans if we give it a go..0

The way the draw panned out hopes were up for a real big boy so felt a deflater but we have to get up for this and do what we can to help the team - a rousing atmosphere and play all the big men up top - bomb em with noise and balls !!!!1

Only read a few comments, and some of you are batshit crazy. Surely we either want one of the Sky six (well one of the remaining three of the Sky six) at home and all the bells and whistles (and TV coverage) that goes with it, or my personal preference, Gillingham or a League One team at home? In other words a winnable game that could see us in the quarter finals for only the second time in sixty odd years.
Instead we are playing a very decent Premier League side, who are (and I mean no disrespect to a club that I am actually quite fond of) about as glamourous as we were when we graced the top flight, and who should beat us at a canter. We are the team that struggled to get a lucky draw at Stevenage a few days ago, FFS...
I have read talk of it being "winnable" - when did some of you start following the Addicks? Wednesday?

4th round/quarter-finals... who gives a crap which round we're in, we're not going to win the thing? And TV coverage... why does that matter... it'snot going to affect the amount of money Sandgaard gives the club? This is a chance to have a great night down The Valley, the kind we haven't had in years. As such, home to a Premier League club, any Premier League club, is a very good draw. Hoping we give them a good run for their money and take it to penalties...Algarveaddick said:Only read a few comments, and some of you are batshit crazy.

I think people are building Brighton up to what they might not be. Arsenal have other targets now they have had that great start to the league and have qualified for the next stage of the CL. As for Brighton in the PL, it could be just new manager bounce. 3 consecutive wins in the PL has given them 9 points, puts them on 21 and pushed them to 6th. Take away those 9 points and they would be sitting in a relegation spot. Their season hasn’t been that great. They can’t afford to lose that new manager bounce or put too many eggs in that Caribao cup basket.redbuttle said:I must admit last night I saw it as a shit tie, but was a bit deluded.

They were better than 6th I believe when Chelsea took Potter and then the new manager took a few games to start getting results, but they were very unlucky in that respect as they’d played really well in those games.letthegoodtimesroll said:

They’re an excellent team with excellent players. Just because they don’t have the history of other clubs, doesn’t mean at the moment they’re not a top ten team. We’re being disrespectful to them to suggest they’re anything but a top half premier league team at the moment.
But as I’ve said, given that they won’t have played in a month, it will be a wonderful free hit at them which is no lose for our players. 👍3
