Walter Rayner took Third Division south Charlton to the last 8 of the FA Cup in 1923
We beat Man City, Preston and West Brom (all top flight sides) before being beaten by eventual winners Bolton at the Valley

I like that FA Cup on a kendo pole. Somehow, I don't think anyone will be smuggling one of those into Bramall Lane.0

Yes, I was aware of that run but wasn't sure if we made the last 8 as the rounds were numbered differently.Henry Irving said:Walter Rayner took Third Division south Charlton to the last 8 of the FA Cup in 1923

Chrissy is still one of only 4 (rather than 3) managers to take us that far and COULD, theoretically, become one of only 2 if Sheffield United don't come good!

So, we've never lost a semi.
