Charlton v Boro predictions
Archived18 replies · 291 views
2-1 Boro... But only cos I don't want the Hammers to get Charlton in the next round... You see I teach at Darren Bent's old shcool and every time he has a big game (e.g. England debut) they dredge this fact up, so if we lost to Charlton in the semis, I'd just get too much grief from the kids and it's bad enough as it is being a Hammer... Is that a round about enough reason?

One of my best mates used to teach John Terry in Barking.
He still rues the day he had to sit young Terry down and have the chat, "Now, you've got to pull your socks up in Chemistry, John, because you might not make it as a footballer."

Bent wasn't too bad by all accounts... Mind you, have to feel sorry for him with that surname and all... Can you imagine being at school with a moniker like that?

Amusingly, one of the teachers in the same dept had previously had the same conversation with one Tony Cottee.

at least he was proved right 
Just stuck 25 notes on Boro at three's at HT.
50p for each of their fans who've made the journey!
Surely the likes of Yakubu and Hasselbaink can get more into the game in this half.
Charlton will win 8-0 now.

Strange game - watching first half, it seemed shit, but as they said on the TV, looking back over the first 45 there has been a lot of action... Crap finishing though...

....They'll be misssing the smog down the Smoke no doubt...The Replay will see a full house I'm sure

Thought Vidkua was gonna swing it eventually.
Alas, no. :(
Its great to be in the draw for the semi-final tommorrow,a chance to do a convincing league and cup double over Chelsea is somewhat mouthwatering in itself,but in an FA cup final is fairytale stuff.Liverpool would be much tougher for Boro....West Ham 50/50 game. I'm looking forward to the draw

In order of preference for the Hammers:
- Boro/Charlton
- Chelsea
- Liverpool
But, as you said, great to just be in the draw...
