Wow, a proper draw. Chelsea at home in the 3rd Round of the FA Cup. I believe they also call themselves the best team in the World!
An exciting draw, the first for many years. The game will played over the weekend of January 10/11th, and I guess we could be a TV pick.
The last time we played Chelsea was in February 2007. It was at The Valley and Coventry boss Frank Lampard scored the winner.
It’s hard to imagine but we played them every season for the 9 years before that. Included in that time was when Jose Mourinho’s Chelsea did not lose to us, but did really on penalties at Stamford Bridge in the League Cup in October 2005.
In 1995 we played them in the FA Cup 3rd Round also at Stamford Bridge and lost 3-0.
Some news to raise a smile on Addicks’ faces after a tough weekend.
