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 Blockbuster
Listening whilst having a shower to Charlton commentary and burst in to a chorus of oooooh Gassan Ahadme oooooh Gassan Ahadme … and gave myself a couple of tugs on the the old boy to celebrate 😳

You reckon? Only I don't think you've mentioned that before all afternoon .....!
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 away
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.
But looking at the starting team you can hardly say we took it for granted.
Its just that the team is shit, the goalie is shit and the manager is shit. :-)
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.
Nah, makes it more interesting...wouldn't be Charlton would it...
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...

We’re on our way to Wembley
La la la la……la la la la. 🥳🥳🥳
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.

It would be glorious though.
I could happily enjoy a reworked version going through various different players.
Not necessarily.

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