Thought we were the better team (marginally). Had chances that on another day would have gone in. Barnet fans seemed very happy with replay, not surprised after recent catastrophes.
If we don't finish them off at home next week then god help us. We strolled to a draw in 5th gear

For the record (and the sensitive amongst you) I didn't make it cos away with kids for half term boooooooooo
Thought we played well 1st half but lacked a cutting edge. Very average second half, didn't think Abbott played well alongside Benson. Wish Reid would look up and pick the simple pass, he would become a much better player. Enjoyed the prematch fish and chips and beer, and meeting up with mates new and old
Thank goodness the cloud-cover arrived before kick-off! If there's a 'next time', will remember to take sun-visor, ear-plugs (to block deafening tinny p.a. speaker in the seated area) and alarm clock to wake at full time. Thought Francis was almost Brentford-esque; so much long-ball stuff too; mid-field good-ish when they had the ball, but did get beaten in possession too often. Has Reid EVER hit a free-kick on target? Benson should have done better when through on goal .... Could easily have conceded late on. Seemed happy with draw despite all the pressure 2nd half.
Though Racon and Semedo bossed the midfield, got really scrappy at times tho, when abbott came on reverted to long balls and barnet were happy with that, that saying thought we were going to score when we had 4 shots in 2 minutes but at least were still in the draw and should comfortably beat them in the replay
only interesting event was the big group old looking guys trying to leave the half busy main charlton stand with a little bit of atmosphere and cry their way into the soulless terrace behind the goal.
I fort that Barnet defended very well Basey had a good game and they played for a draw till last 10 min they gave it a go, we could of lost but happy to see are name in the draw however thats got to be the worst game of football for a long time was dyer for the fans
We weren't great, but the league matters most. I rather have this mediocre performance in the Cup than at Peterborough. Only downside is that we now have another fixture in an already rather congested period.
What's the deal with Abbott?
Is he still overweight?
Benson has done just what the tin says and scored goals when we got the ball in the oppo's box.
Ayinsah could prove to be an inspired free transfer signing - kudos to Parky.
Abbott has looked p*ss poor by all accounts.
Is he going to get any better?

what did we expect... I would rather we throw in a really average performance against Barnet, that drop points or get beat in a league game...
Couldnt care less about ay cups until we are a safely established Champs team again, then we can start thinking about cups...
and I was massiviely tired, fell asleep about 2o mins before kick off...
Rest assured though mate if it was a league game Id be can of red bull and here we go...
I think that might highlight the point actually...

A bit like the team, you mean .....?
Perhaps Parky also forgot the tinnies of Red Bull.
however thats got to be the worst game of football for a long time was dyer for the fans
Fortress Underhill ....?
Basey and Abbott looked like a couple of fat fellas playing in the park at Hackney Marshes.
Good day on the lash though.

Chances were few but Jackson and Benson should've done better with the efforts they had.
Finally well done to the FA for using out of date pumpkins for the official match ball for the cup this season!
