chesterfield away. what was the score? won on pens 4-3 (3-3 aet)
Look at their faces. It's means more to me that we went through all that tonight, than winning easy or losing and therefore being forced into concentrating on the Premiership job at hand.
The team spirit, epitomised by those players faces at the point of HH's winning penalty, is there in spades and that can only be good. Glad that Jimmy scored, Benty took only 8 minutes to get on the scoresheet and Carson is, well I wish he was a Charlton player.
Great result, history was made tonight. Let's keep it going.
Dowie watch: Will be pissed off that we conceded early in both halves and late in the game and perhaps disappointed in the performances of those players that came in. However under Dowie's leadership we are in the last 8 of the competition for the first time in our history.
Quote: "I also want to pay a great deal of respect to our character. We didn't buckle under difficult circumstances, even at end when we conceded for a third time at a set-piece."
