Well I must know Ketman and North Stand Steve by sight in that case as there werent that many of us who stood on the Sainsbury's terrace and were season ticket holders....
I stood in the Arhtur Waite at the Norwich game as far as I can remember...didnt we get about 4-5,000 for that one....yeah a semi final and that few of us...shocking eh
about 5000 tel, remember the game after Norwich was Leicester away,everybody givin it Wemberlee wemberlee we're the famous charlton f.c. and we're goin to wemberlee,then gettin bricked by the baby squad as we went under a bridge.
I remember being stuck in that corner at Leicester....we didnt take that many up there from memory....it got a bit tasty when we left the ground, but being all growed up by then, I managed to avoid it ;-) I seem to remember a couple of ours getting ejected from the Leicester side.
No. I think I convinced myself that they weren't "First Class Fixtures" so didn't go to either game, even though I'd been a hard-core home/away supporter for a few seasons. The penalty shoot-out win at Everton in the next round woke me up a bit and I went to the Norwich game (superb match....) and the Final (not a superb match...).
One of my CAFC claims to fame is that I went to every round of this cup run.
Remember it absolutely pissing down for this one and the stewards taking pity on the 5-6 Bradford fans who travelled and moving them to the little bit of empty terrace in the Homesdale corner of the Arthur Waite.
Was there also some other matches in this competition also with small crowds in another season? I seem to remember us playing Leicester at home in fog with a 2-1 win? And did we play Hull one year and it went to extra time, same cup, cannot remember who won?

Leciester was 89/90 and hull was 87/88 we won on pens. Both in the same cup
I went to every round that year - it was very cold for the Bradford game. Billy Beggs scored vs B'rum. Everton quarter final was one of the best games I ever saw. Top, top game with both sides hitting the woodwork. Neil Pointon should have won the penalty shoot out, but shot wide. Final was sooooo disappointing...

So am I loyal or plastic?!
I was at that one, didn't Kevin Campbell play as a youngster on loan from the Arse?
Went to the Hull game too!
