Love it.

Thank you all for the updates and humour (gallows admittedly) throughout the thread.
I dream of a time when we can avoid such scares in cup competitions.3 -

Hylton is good for bullying U21 kids, especially with pace around him (TC).ForeverAddickted said:

For better or worse we've made a big investment in him, whereas Hylton is a stopgap solution.1 -

FA Cup need to sort out their streaming options though - I get it, they want fans in the stands... But Sport is evolving now, Netflix has come along, and the Footballing bodies are acting like Blockbuster11

Scoring four goals away is good.
Throwing away the lead twice, albeit to some fortunate Southend goals, is not.
Lloyd Jones remains a huge miss, as does Ramsay, and the other weaknesses in the team and squad were exposed again. At least our forwards are scoring.
But it is cup football, all that matters is winning and we did that.

We all know it’s never easy being us ! It’s why we support the club we do !No chance we should be letting 3 goals in to a NL club and I was fully expecting an embarrassing cup exit. But then up steps the Gasman and saves the day which might well be the thing that lights his season up !
now we have the excitement of waiting for our name to come out of the draw only to then have the despair when we draw some lowly northern team away3 -
If he's fit enough to make the bench, he can come on before the 117th minute.Oggy Red said:

It would be glorious though.
I could happily enjoy a reworked version going through various different players.

Yeah but apart from that ...Fortune 82nd Minute said:
But looking at the starting team you can hardly say we took it for granted.NornIrishAddick said:
Part of a reasonably long, but not entirely illustrious, Charlton tradition of taking early rounds of the Cup for granted, with inevitable egg on faces consequences, even if we sneak through.ct_addick said:NJ gone by Jan….FFS playing Hylton
Its just that the team is shit, the goalie is shit and the manager is shit. :-)1 -
The removal of replays worked out well for us today, as instead of an unwanted replay we instead won in extra time.9

a good calm performance with quality telling in the end5

Reminds me of the Dagenham away win in the Cup all those years ago. Shaun Newton’s winner in extra time. Lots of fuss about nothing. Never in doubt. 😂3

Not necessarily.

I'm in favour of "occasionally" going through it, but it's in danger of becoming part of our tradition, which would be fine if we could play the role of underdogs...eastterrace6168 said:

Hopefully this may kick start Ahadme's cafc career as it's been a tough start.

Chuks generally comes on with 30 minutes to go, not 5 minutes of extra time.blackpool72 said:killerandflash said:
