Chris Powell desperate to take Charlton Athletic to Wembley

Chris Powell has admitted that he is desperate to take Charlton Athletic to Wembley in the FA Cup.

The Addicks will set up a game at the famous stadium if they can beat Sheffield United in the competition's quarter-final on Sunday, and Powell knows just how important it could be for the Charlton supporters.

"I haven't been there in any capacity, so I'd love it to be with Charlton," Powell told reporters.

"It is massive to be in the competition, to be in with a chance of winning the famous old trophy. It is brilliant.

"The tickets sold out in a matter of days and I am sure we could have taken double the allocation. I am determined to get us to the new Wembley."

Charlton beat Sheffield Wednesday in the previous round to reach the last eight of the competition.
