Yes, as commented, Stockport have an excellent following and will probably fill the Jimmy Seed stand. A good league two side with a progressive owner. Going to be a tough fixture. Hope we can get a good support on the day.
Every indication that Garner takes the FA Cup and League Cup seriously. I don't see any reason why we wouldn't field a team at least as strong as the one that faced Coalville on Saturday.
Home draw. Perfect. We might just have an interesting run in the cups this season. When has that ever happened in the last 30 years?
We've had fairly favourable draws so far. The toughest game was QPR in the EFL Cup, but that was at least at home, otherwise we've had no team higher than L2.
Hadn’t realised they’d got back in the Football League.
Had a couple of good away days at Stockport. They’re a decent club and will bring a good following. They won’t have had a decent London day out in a big stadium for a few years.
Ebbsfleet Vs Fleetwood must be a potential TV game I'd imagine
I do hope so thats my 12 hr days weekend and cant go to Charton or Ebbsfleet so moving to a friday or monday night would be great, though maybe the consideration of the travelling Fleetwood fans may stop it.
Not a bad tie, winnable and they will think the same. Wonder if Stockport Addict will make the trip.
As a side note well done Ebbsfleet Utd another home tie, would be wonderful to see them get through to the 3rd round.
I certainly would have done @Chippycafc but I live in Portugal so my days of popping down to the Valley are long gone sadly. My phone was a bit lively for a couple of hours after the draw!
My son said last night about 15 of his mates have already said they are going who he will travel down with, they are looking in to a minibus for themselves or join one of the official coaches. If it's the latter, I'd love to be a fly on the coach wall when my son gets on with his Charlton shirt on, which no doubt he will lol.
They'll sell out the JS we could well be outnumbered this time!
Hard to judge crowds as it's in the middle of the World Cup group stages, but it's our only home fixture until the 2nd December, so surely that should encourage a few more?
Avanti Rail is in a pretty shit state atm so might reduce their numbers.
Not sure if this was mentioned on this thread already. But before the draw yesterday when they were speaking to Jermaine Beckford he said:
’The luck of the draw is on the side of the winners’
In my covidy state I’ve been trying to wrap my head around if that was the most profound thing I’ve ever heard or if Jermaine panicked and just made up some random crap on the spot.

Dull draw all round I thought
Reckon we'll lose 0-1 to this lot and they will pull Tottenham at WHL in the next round.
OR...

The quadruple is still on.
Saturday at 3pm would clash with France v Denmark
wonder what time/day will be selected
stockport will likely bring a large following and can see them turning us over

Salford City vs Peterborough (ITV)
Are the replays picked for TV coverage - Decent job from ITV picking their tie when there are five replays involving Non-League teams!!
