Holding it at their place is a recipe for disaster. There will be hundreds of Charlton fans wanting to go, even if it just to "tick off" that they've been to a new ground. And I'm not even thinking about violence or trouble at the match. Anyone heard of the Hillsboro disaster.
I've never been there so new ground
Been to our other away cup disasters (Northwich, D&R)
Its a short bus ride away with a MacDonalds over the road - in fact it will probably be quicker & easier using their loos at half time than any in the ground.
There's more chance of @ElfsborgAddick buying a beer and the odds on winning the lottery are less than that.
Remember, there were 6700 there yesterday.2 -

That being so, I'd put out a full strength side and try and put this tie to bed. There wasn't a single bad tackle on Sunday or in the two televised non-league games and injuries can (and do) happen at any time. As for fatigue, we haven't even got a game the following weekend.
I think it's absolutely right that the replay is at Cray Valley's ground - they've more than earned the right and, as others have said, we've brought this upon ourselves. If there are problems with the lack of segregation, Charlton could waive their right to some of their 15% entitlement (a maximum of 150).
I will say this again just to be clear. I couldn't give a flying fuck where the game is played, my only concern is that there is no trouble or any issues around crowd safety. I have never been to their ground but looking at the photos posted on here there doesn't seem to be much in the way of infrastructure. For some people saying should we have switched the BC game back in 1994 or that Leeds should have complained about playing in a 3000 capacity stadium some years back are just being antagonistic or spoiling for a fight.
I know I get pelters on here & most of the time I don't care and its water off a ducks back, but in this case I just think its madness that a tie which attracted 6700 people last weekend is now only going to be able to accommodate 1000 - without segregation and with minimal facilities. But then again, why should the "customers" be considered in all this. As long as the clubs get their fees who cares. Far cry from a Peter Varney cry of "get down & support your team......."
But as I said, I really dont care. I'll probably stay at home & watch it on TV (like I did Sunday)....I just hope that Thursday morning we are talking about what happened on the pitch & not off it.3 -

The BBC have coveted matches at grounds this small in the qualifying rounds. Or are they technically pre qualifying rounds for the FACup.
Any way watched a number on the red button chanel.0 -
I still say it could possibly be called off due to playing in what will resemble The Quaggy...and if it is still on, make sure you take ya brollies 'cause it's gonna piss down and there ain't any cover!!...🤷♂️0

Do they not play on a 3G pitch?

No, it is a grass pitch that slopes down in the direction of the Quaggy.

Just to put that result into perspective.

RodneyCharltonTrotta said:My old man used to be involved with Greenwich Borough a few years back and they ground shared with Cray there.
I've asked him to send me the blueprints of the stadium and will post them up here so we can plan an A Team/ McGyver/ AFKA's Eleven style mission to secretly tunnel into the ground on match day and all pop out just in time to see Charlie Kirk bully their huge centre back off the ball to score his third and match winner.
We can all then carry him aloft our collective shoulders back for a swift celebratory pint in the Oak after stopping in for a traditional post match Wednesday night roast at a Toby Carvery en route.
Let's do this. Operation Backdoor Shenanigans.
Great post !0 -

I was wondering if they got game time.. Checking back to the match thread I couldn't find the CVPM team listing (which in hindsight was a bit disrespectful on our collective part), but the BBC line ups shows they were unused subs on the night. Still amazing that these are school kids, albeit 17/18 yr olds.

You might care about the integrity of the cup whereas I care more about the safety of supporters.....from both sides.7 -

We'll get about 100 tickets but in 20 years time on Charlton life at least 3000 will claim to have been there.15 -
