[One Foot in the Grave]

Charlton Athletic were once managed by Phil Parkinson (the other one), have had 4 spells in the top tier of English football (once runners-up) and won the FA Cup 6 months before I was born 😂

At this level, they're a biggish club, and should bring a decent following if we get through the replay (for which we should have a stronger team).

BUT WE HAVE TO BEAT GATESHEAD FIRST!

We do but the fun of being in the hat is to get prematurely excited (sorry!)

Meanwhile, over on the Charlton forum, first reaction was, 'Oh FFS' 

Lots of them seem convinced it'll be a telly game.

Try thinking about Nicola Sturgeon. That's surely help matters.

My thoughts exactly. They have the same incentive. Underestimate the Heed at our peril…

I feel sick now!

Huh!

"Am actually surprised that its Altrincham in the Conference and Gateshead in the Conference North

Thought it was the other way around"

Totally. Potentially a massive reward for the winners. Gateshead were within an ace of beating us, they'll have all the motivation required at Moss Lane.

[Wilmslow Alty]

Any word on tickets for next week's replay?

[hsmith1]

let me clear up the draw, first of all in Gateshead win the replay then they are at home to Charlton,if we win the game then we are Away at Charlton.

[Alty Bri]

I think that it's important to realise that Gateshead play less than half their games on grass!

Charlton took 1300 fans to Lincoln on Sat 15/10.  The overall attendance was 9100.  They seemed pleased with the number who travelled to that game and I don't think that they are likely to bring many more to us (if indeed we do play them).

They only had 3864 for their home 1st Rd tie with Havant.
