A link to a write-up on the most popular Charlton website.

Seems like a lot of our fans are pessimistic about Sunday, and i think rightly so. I think it'll be a tough hard fought game for both sides.

Also appears there is a mutual respect between fans, something that was certainly missing from the last round. Whoever wins will get an 'all the best in the semi final' message.

It'll be a cracking atmosphere and as they say 'May the best team win'.

They missed our rounds 1 & 2 victories.

I certainly felt that during the season that Charlton went up from League One as Champions. Was it there before that season, or was that the year it came about?

Indeed, and Cambridge maybe put us under more pressure than any of the other teams, no?

Wonder what Tudgay's odds are to score anytime?....

 

[HeCanDoMagic]

The Tudgay factor means we will definitely have to score twice to win this one.

Good and insightful post George. I happen to believe that some sets of supporter's like the buzz that comes from being purposefully antagonsitic. I'm very passionate about SUFC, but do I wish harm or damage to other supporter's? Of course I don't.

The banter is fun, and yes, sometimes it does get a bit excessive, but as long as we remember that it's football, not a cure for cancer, then perspective is maintained. Good luck on Sunday mate, not too much you understand , and like you, I hope it's a cracking game for both sets of fans. Against all the odds your lot have done brilliantly to sell out your allocation of tickets, so you can rest assured we'll serve up an atmosphere we'll all remember UTB

I love this comment from one of their fans:

before last Saturday I was reasonably confident but that most tepid of displays has scared me and the fact Sheff Utd will/have come good and are playing like the Invincibles/Brazil1970 rolled in to one means we lose

 

[Grecian2000]

Is that the 18 for Sunday Tenor?

I know we've got some injuries piling up but that's not looking great.

It's a game for both teams and both sets of supporters to enjoy. No pressure really on either side. If we win, what's the betting it's the first ever semi not to be televised? Also in sure the FA would insist on a Sunday 5pm kick off.
Seriously though I think there are similarities between our clubs. I for one have great respect for their manager, top bloke.

Good write up, nice balance for both teams.

Here's a preview I worked on as well: viewfromthedugout.com/facup-quarter-final-preview/

Should be a cracker, great to see it's a sell out!

Let's all make our avatars ones of us posing with the FA Cup. It's worked for me so far, courtesy of Foxy although his camera is a bit dodgy, I'm really five years younger and a stone lighter
