I have been ridiculed by my mates for years for saying that i would rather Charlton won the FA cup/got promoted back to the premier league than England win the World Cup or Euros. I am massively outnumbered by my mates i just wondered what other peoples opinions were?

Do these mates support the likes of Arsenal/United? Perhaps the dint see the FA cup as such a prize.
Absence makes the heart grow fonder. And 47 is longer ago than 66.
Tranmere - get to the Premiership or win the League Cup (finalists a while back!)
QPR - they don't do cups. Reach the Champions League, I guess
Nigels - feature in Gazzetta Dello Sport about 'Ultras Inglesi'
Brighton - FA Cup win
West Ham - West Ham fans don't want England to win the World Cup again because West Ham won it the first time
Spurs - Champions League win or Arsenal relegation
Arsenal - Champions League win or Spurs relegation
Chelsea - never lose another game ever
Supporting Charlton from a distance is ideal for me.
I lived in 3 countries and never failed to betray each one of them on crucial home games.
Last year I flew over to attend 1 charlton match at great expense. It was away to Rochdale so my love is intact. Back in my Croydon days, attending more then 2 home games in a row and I began to flirt with the opposition. ...
...Expensive therapy has so far came to nada...
Couldn't care more about Charlton
1 England win the World Cup (still the biggest sporting competition in the world, imagine how incredible it would be across the country)
2 Charlton win the League
3 Charlton win the FA Cup
4 Charlton get back into the Prem
5 England win the Euros
Feck off Roly you twunt
would love Charlton to get back to the championship (and win the F A Cup) couldn't give a stuff if we never made it back to the prem
England winning something would edge it for me
But those days were massive piss ups and then a disco afterwards.
Now though, think I'd prefer Charlton to win something and for England to get knocked out in the 2nd round by Timbuktu.
