That&apos;s despite a 117-place differential between the eighth-tier team and League One contenders Charlton.<\/p>\n<p>Charlton appeared on course for a routine win over the minnows when Scott Fraser put them ahead after just nine minutes. However, the Millers held on to stay in the fight and got their just reward after forcing Lucas Ness to slide the ball into his own net soon after the restart.<\/p>\n<p><b>READ MORE: <\/b><b>Player-manager scores stunning free-kick in FA Cup upset and &apos;celebrates with himself&apos;<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>READ MORE: <\/b><b>Fans can&apos;t believe Jack Cork&apos;s looks compared to ex-footballer dad at same age<\/b><\/p>\n<p>It leaves Cray Valley with an opportunity to pack out the 1,000-capacity Badgers Sports Ground, which one social media user noted usually attracts around 120 fans on matchdays.

Disappointed with some of the performances from a few of the players. I expected a little bit more from some of the players. Probably up until the goal it was okay.
