We beat Chelsea in the 4th round then eventually list to Cambridge in the 5th round.

it felt like we should have made the quarters as having beat Chelsea we were a league above Cambridge and played them at home.  Opportunity missed big time.

I thought Charlton was after the Chelsea game ?

Question for the stattos. When was the last time we played live on a terrestrial TV channel?

I’m 39 and the only time I can remember was a random league game away at Swindon around 2000, on HTV? But I think it was only on in our local region.

So when was the last time we played on national terrestrial television?!

Good chance it’ll happen if we get a plum draw.

Was it against West Ham in the Cup (Sunday 25th January 2015 on BBC1)

Lost 2-0 away to Spurs in the next  round.

11th March 1967, my first away game!

Jimmy Greaves put Spurs 1-0 up. Tony Ford missed his first ever penalty, ref said retake, Chris Crowe (who we had heard blasted them) side footed it about five yards wide!

Greaves showed everyone how to take a penalty five minutes from time.

Oh yeah! The free scarf game. Had forgotten that one. So not quite the dim and distant past I thought it was.

Yep, the game we also let them bring their bubble machine ?

That’s right.   There was a massive fuss about it and then when it came to it it was like something from a kids birthday party!

Yep, it was pretty pathetic thinking back!

Wasn't it more of a case that the BBC thought it would "look good for the cameras?"

West Ham in our L1 promotion season(?)

Man Utd + Man City in the league cup were both Sky(?)

Maybe Boro.: 08(?)

You might be right

I believe we have been live on NATIONAL terrestrial TV just four times to date. The 1989 League Cup semi final second leg v Nottingham Forest on ITV, a league match in 2010 (I think) on BBC 1 when we beat WBA 2-1 and the FA Cup games in 2013 away at Tamworth (2-1 win) on ITV and in 2015 v West Ham also on BBC 1. 

Other games on ITV were just shown on HTV and whatever region the opponents hailed from but not nationally

Superb answer!

But why was a league match v WBA on BBC1?
