    Let's win for the Monkey.

    The evidence was flimsy and when Melvin showed his arse to the Jury it wasn't a sign of Dissent but one of boredom.

    Pleased that Cafc will wear their Monkey world T-shirts tonight and are prepared for a yellow card each time we score.

    this is the worse footballing period in our history , since we entered the football league .
    I accept we are utter shit but I’m not gonna be accepting of this period in our forever moving position in the footballing pyramid .
    We’re in a competition that palaces u21s enter , I mean there’s no other way to dress it up than a football nightmare that we are going through .

    Just read that they have sold out their 4,700 allocation for the cup tie at Palace, really hope they beat them.
    Had a soft spot for them after the game in our 100 plus promo season under Chris Powell.
    After tonight wish them all the best! Seem to be great supporters.

    The thing for me is, we aren’t really above it. We’ve been pretty shit for a few seasons. We are in League 1 - it’s a lower league + U23 or U21 (whatever it is) competition. And as you say, an opportunity to play at Wembley again.

    I can't take it seriously since premier league sides were allowed to enter teams.

    All this talk of Wembley, us being too big for this comp, the merit of the competition, us not competing against under 21 teams, when the draw being made we have an easy tie, leads me to only one conclusion

    Hartlepool win

    Just think of all the drama of  beating those top teams to get here..err..anyway...

    We just can't blow it now. 

    But we will.

    Terrific fans. Great effort on their part. 

    Should our away following dress as monkeys to return the compliment or could history repeat itself in a tragic and violent way ?
    Agreed. I have always had a soft spot for Hartlepool after the two times we played them at home last game of the season and their fans dressed up. I remember them bringing a large away support too. Great fans and a proper football club.

    I think we need to play a strong team, but don't think we will. I am sitting on the fence for this one - could go either way.

    Love the story about the monkey! I am assuming they had never seen a Frenchman before either!

    Yup. Is Akrin injured? Otherwise he might be involved. He arguably looked a bit better than Deji at times in the Pizza Trophy.

    My thoughts exactly. Elewere and Henry have been regulars in the Papa Johns, while Chin, Ness and Williams have also played

    I'm in meetings from 11am-1pm PST so I'm going to have to watch the match out of the corner of my eye at best. Genuinely gutted. Usually if there's a big Tuesday game I try and leave at least a little gap in meetings to watch some of it but it just wasn't possible today.

    Good luck and safe journey to all those making the trek. Two wins to Wembley.

    Total respect to those hardy souls travelling to Hartlepool today.

    We know you'll make some noise & fingers crossed you see another Addicks' victory on the road. 

    You deserve it !
