Happened many years back for a friendly in August 1974 - the attendance was not far short of a thousand and I am sure most of them were Charlton fans.
My befuddled mind recalls a bar behind one end with a view over the pitch. To the best of my memory, we drank the bar dry by half-time. Oh, and we lost the game one-nil.
Saw Oldham are in this round, now that surprised me, a team naturally of the EFL. I know how bad we feel about our decline, but imagine being an Oldham fan who once graced the 2nd tier!
Wasn't it them who we were playing when the game was abandoned because our pitch was flooded? 3-0 down at half time?
I'm testing my old memory again Kap, but I was there at this game and I'm sure it was Doncaster Rovers and 1-3 when the game was called off at HT and we had reached 4.45pm !
They were down to ten men, I thought we had a chance of coming back to win it, but the conditions were appalling. We won the second game 2-0, just to rub salt in to their wounds.

Mind you I wish Beckenham Town were still in it.
Instead we'll probably end up at home to MK Dons
We played them many many years ago in consecutive weeks in different competitions, we lost 6-0 and 3-2, Johnny Oostergarrd and all that.
No scores on Scocor Saturday
No scores on BBC main football website
Even the official FA Cup website only seemed to be showing some final scores
Most odd.
